Hookena Beach Park at a Glance

Nature lovers and history buffs will have their hands full at Hookena Beach Park, one of the most picturesque beaches on the Big Island. Here you will find magnificent cliffs, soft sands, lush palm trees, and an ancient Hawaiian temple (heiau) sitting by an age-old lava formation that still looks as fluid as the day it flowed to the sand. You’d have to be half blind to ignore the historical and environmental wonders of this place.

When you’re done taking in the scenery, grab some snorkeling gear and explore the local marine life. It’s nowhere near as colorful as that of Honaunau Bay, but it’s still a sight to behold. Try to spot some dolphins-they make frequent appearances on this side and may even swim up to snorkelers. The water is calm most of the year and not too deep, so diving is safe even for first-timers.

On the shore, you’ll find a number of trails that lead to tree groves, boulder formations, and other interesting features. Most of them end at the renowned temple, which simply brims with spirituality and historical charm. A well-versed local can point out ancient artifacts and rare trees along the way.

If you decide to spend the night, check in at one of the camping facilities. Camping is allowed on most days and is fairly safe, since there’s a good security system in place. Decent bathrooms and shower rooms are located around the camp sites, and most of the essentials are available from the beachside shops.

Safety Tip
Whatever beach in Hawaii you visit, please have in mind that the ocean can be very dangerous. Never turn your back against the waves and watch out for underwater currents and always check the surf conditions. Pay attention to signs posted on the beach. If you are not sure about the conditions, ask the lifeguards (if any on the beach). Please click here to read more about ocean safety in Hawaii.
