Lonely Planet review for Manini'owali (Kua Bay)

Manini'owali (Kua Bay) is idyllic, with crescent-shaped white sands and turquoise waters. Due to its easy access, Manini'owali packs on weekends. Most of the year, the conditions are suited to swimmers, but in winter the waves kick up for bodyboarders and bodysurfers and the storms can generate currents that temporarily strip the beach of sand. There are bathrooms and showers and picnic tables, but very little vegetation or shade.

On the way to the beach you'll see Pu'u Ku'ili, a 342ft grassy cinder cone.
