Kailua Kona, HI 96740

Alula Beach, located at the entrance to Honokohau Harbor in Kailua Kona, HI, is a secluded cove featuring a small white sand beach interspersed with black lava rock. This protected area is known for its excellent snorkeling conditions during calm waters and serves as a popular launch point for divers and snorkelers.

Part of the Kalolo-Honokohau National Historic Park, Alula Beach offers visitors a glimpse into Hawaiian culture and history, with nearby ancient stone houses and a heiau, or Hawaiian temple. Accessing the beach involves a rocky trail, but the stunning views and tranquil environment make it a worthwhile destination for swimming and exploring.
