Review:
Kalalau Beach is a very secluded beach accessed by the 11-mile Kalalau Trail along the Napali Coast. Surrounded by rugged coastline, forested mountains, and spectacular views, the beach is a mile long and has large waves throughout the year due to having no reef protecting the bay. The Kalalau Trail is rated as a challenging hike of technical difficulty with many sheer drop-offs, narrow ledges, steep climbs, and descents. Camping is allowed on the beach with a permit, and there are designated camping areas with fire pits, pit toilets, and drinking water from the nearby waterfall. Activities in the area include hiking, picnicking, photography, and wildlife watching.
