Also known as Punalu'u Beach, Black Sand Beach is one of the most unique beaches in the country, and it's a beautiful place to spend a night or two. The neighboring beach is home to a group of sea turtles, and when the weather is nice, you can snorkel with the turtles and the tropical fish that live in the water. The campsites are on the grass right above the beach, and all campers have access to vault toilets and unheated beach showers. Camping permits are required.
