Tunnels (Makua) Beach

Best snorkeling, somewhat difficult parking. Two roads provide beach access- the first is located 0.4-mile past mile marker 8 and the second is 0.6-mile past mile marker 8 (the latter is the better of the two). Parking can be a hassle because you will have to park along the side of a narrow road.

The beach itself is located nearly directly across from mile marker 8 on Highway 560 going east from Hanalei towards Ha’ena, but  do NOT park on the street, as the police will ticket you for doing so.Two roads provide beach access- the first is located 0.4-mile past mile marker 8 and the second is 0.6-mile past mile marker 8 (the latter is the better of the two). Parking can be a hassle because you will have to park along the side of a narrow road. The entrance roads are a bit hard to find, but there are a few signs placed by residents that clearly let you know which roads do NOT lead to Tunnels Beach. Please show Aloha and don’t park in those spots.

Alternatively walk from Haena beach park (linked below)
