Mau'umae Beach Photos

Located in the Big Island’s South Kohala district (northwestern shore), this beach is tucked away behind shady trees and features protected waters. It is less popular than the neighboring beaches Mauna Kea Beach and Spencer Beach Park. The swimming conditions are decent when the ocean is calm, but snorkeling is not recommended here because the water is usually murky.
