Polihale State Park

Polihale Beach, located on Kauai's western shore near Na Pali State Park, is the state's most extended, lasting over 17 miles. Unfortunately, only ten of these miles are available to the public, but there is still enough space to explore the dunes. Due to strong currents, this is not a swimming beach, and there are no lifeguards on duty, but visitors may enjoy the tranquillity of the wide-open space while wading and collecting shells.

Because it is only accessible by dirt roads, tourists will find this beach far less crowded than others. It is an excellent location for a long romantic walk on the beach, and the sunsets are spectacular.
