Kikaua Beach, Big Island
This small man-made cove has a pretty white-sand beach. The sandy ocean bottom within the cove is ideal for small children. The cove is surrounded by lava rocks which protect the nearshore waters from waves and currents. There are some palm trees on the beach which provide shade, and the beach is easily accessible via a 5-minute walk on a paved path.

Location: Kukio Nui Drive, Kailua Kona, HI 96740 Directions: From Kailua Kona, drive north for about 14 miles (22.5 km) on Highway 19 (Queen Ka'ahumanu Hwy). Turn left at Kukio Nui Drive (located just south of mile marker 87). Drive toward the gate house and tell the guards that you want to visit the beach. Ask for public beach access.
