Kahena Beach

2comments

It is a black sand beach with a great swimming area. Also, on many days (before noon usually) there is opportunities to swim with dolphins. Or if swimming is not your thing, just lie out and talk with the guys.

Best time
anytime
Crowd
Local gays and many tourists. Also local straights (many hippie types).
Watch out
A lot of the locals seem really burnt out on pot.

I didn't see any cruising going on when I visited, and didn't really see a gay "section" of the beach. The beach is pretty small, so people tend to mingle pretty freely. Palm trees provide some shade, and I wonder if the bushes around the foot of the cliff provide enough privacy for some playing around?

This place is great! lot of nice women and men. But.... where is the crusing area? Just folks enjoying the view and surf.
