Kiahuna Beach
Located on the sunny south shore of Kauai near Poipu, Kiahuna Beach is a beautiful stretch of golden sand with calm, clear waters, gentle waves, and stunning ocean views. This family-friendly beach sits in front of the Kiahuna Plantation Resort and offers excellent conditions for swimming, snorkelling, and beginner-friendly surfing.
The shallow, sandy-bottomed waters make it an ideal spot for wading and boogie boarding, while nearby coral reefs provide opportunities to see tropical fish and sea turtles while snorkelling. The consistent, smaller waves also make it a great place for those looking to try stand-up paddleboarding or take a surf lesson.
The beach is backed by palm trees and grassy areas with plenty of space to relax and enjoy the warm Hawaiian sun. Just a short walk away, Poipu Beach Park provides additional facilities, picnic areas, and lifeguard stations.
With its soft sand, warm waters, and welcoming atmosphere, Kiahuna Beach is a perfect spot to relax and enjoy the ocean, making it a favourite for visitors to Kauaiās south shore.
