My
thoughts: I really like the hike to this beach in the dance rain forest, it was
like discovering it for the first time, I was the only one there and spend long
time on the rocks watching the crabs.

The
visit:
Once you
get into Kamehameha rod, drive all the way to the end and you will see some
parking spots. The trail starts at this small parking lot, try to see you are
parking in non-private spot because this is in a middle of a complex.
The unmarked
trail will take you down right on the edge of the property grass and turn left into the “canyon”.
Keep following the trail in the forest until you will reach the rocky cliff base
near the ocean. Here the trail will take you to the left side, keep going on
the rocks all the way until you will reach the short down path into the small
sandy Sealodge Beach. Overall, I think this is a quarter of a mile hike.
You will
probably have this nice beach all to yourself.
You can
rest, snorkel (on calm days without waves) or just explore the rock section.
Once done
go back up the same way you got in.
