Tunnels Beach
8-mile marker after Princeville
Kauai, Hawaii,

I recommend if you want to go to Tunnels Beach go early! There is not ample parking, there are 2 roads that you can park on and then at Haena Beach Park which is a little hike. You are not able to park on the street here so get there early!

This is a great beach to hang out on. Good wide beach for walking and the sand is very pebbly. It has great beach rocks, I just started collecting them after hanging out on this beach.

Now the snorkeling! This was on of the best snorkeling spots we had visited on the island. Huge Unicorn fish! Great coral. The water goes from about 5 feet deep to over 50 feet deep. You will see a lot of scuba divers out here. Swim out to the deeper water and swim on the edge and see great coral, deep tunnels (this is where the beach gets its name) and all kinds of fish from small to large!
