Poipu Beach Access

The Poipu Beach Access in Poipu, Koloa, Hawaii (Kauai) is a quick 0.1-mile one-way path that leads into Poipu Beach.

Parking
Beach goes and visitors will find parking across the street at two large public parking lots. Both lots can fit a couple-dozen vehicles each, but fill up quickly.

Pets
Dogs are not allowed in Kauai county parks.

Respecting the Land
Hawaiian land is considered sacred to native Hawaiians and many locals, so please stay on-trail, take nothing but photos, and leave nothing but footprints. Respect the locals - don't stay for long and have a backup hike planned in case the parking lot is full.
