Keei Beach at a Glance
Just beside the famous Kealakekua Bay sits a small private
paradise unknown to most visitors. Keei Beach is one of
the best-kept secrets of the Kona Coast, visited mostly
by local fishermen and the occasional sight-seer. But make
no mistake-the sights here are no less spectacular, with
shores of dark lava rock striking a beautiful contrast against
the calm, clear Hawaiian waters.
Keei Beach is not safe for swimming as the lava rocks extend
to the shallow waters. However, snorkeling is great on calmer
days, especially during the summer. Rent your gear from
some of the nearby beaches (or bring your own) and explore
the unique wildlife that thrives in the rocky waters. The
locals can help you find the best snorkeling spots. There
are some tide pools around where you can take a relaxing
dip after a day of snorkeling.
Despite its size, Keei Beach has a lot to offer visitors-you
can spend a full day exploring the waters and the rocky
shores. Some sites worth checking out are the Manini Beach
Road, Kealia Beach, and the Limukoko Point. There are a
few camping grounds around the shore, which may be convenient
if you’re planning to beach-hop.
Keei Beach can be hard to find; you may need a local to
show you the way if you’re not familiar with the southern
Kona Coast. Make sure to check road and weather conditions
before setting off, as the tide can sometimes hide half
of the coastline. On such days, the road may be unsafe and
there may not be much space to park.

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
