Murphy's Beach at a Glance
Murphy's Beach on Molokai's southeast shore is a narrow white-sand beach shaded by ironwood trees. The swimming conditions are fair and most suitable for children as the ocean bottom is shallow and rocky, with a few sandy patches inbetween. When the water is calm, snorkeling and diving are possible outside the reef area, but the currents can be strong here. The beach is a good fishing spot.

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
