The Hawaiian islands are loaded with spectacular beaches and no two are alike. This is my guide to the must-see beaches on Oahu, the Big Island, Maui and Kauai. I’ll take you to Papakōlea, the Big Island’s green beach, and to Punaluʻu, the island’s black beach. On Oahu, we’ll visit Waimea Bay, Hanauma Bay and Waikiki Beach before hopping over to the windsurfing paradise that is Maui’s Ho’okipa Beach Park. We’ll also see Big Beach and Little Beach on the Valley Island’s south shore. There’s no shortage of beaches on Kauai’s north shore. Its east shore—called the Coconut Coast—is the perfect spot to catch spectacular sunrises and its south shore beaches are ideal for catching Pacific sunsets.
