Well known for amazing, colorful sunsets and extremely
consistent Hawaiian weather, Anaehoomalu Bay is a favorite
for Big
Island weddings along the west coast. Ideal for just
about any water sport there is, the bay is also a favorite
for exploring marine life during snorkeling and diving.
Attentive underwater adventurers may even catch a glimpse
of gentle green sea turtles. Picnic areas complete with
tables in the shade are great for lunch or an early dinner
with a backdrop of hundreds of palms swaying in the ocean
breeze.
Settled on the Kohala Coast, a popular haunt for tourists
on Hawaii holidays, Anaehoomalu Bay is defined by a long
stretch of powdery white sand. Behind this beach in Hawaii
lies a number of gentle fish ponds while along the coastline
there are numerous small coves which are most often devoid
of people. The bay itself is shallow making it a good
spot for boats to moor, some which offer Hawaii
cruises in the area. Many of the boats offer sailing
and Hawaii diving charters and windsurfing lessons and
rentals are easily found along the beach. Beach equipment
including umbrellas, snorkeling gear and beach chairs
are also all available for rent.
Many visitors enjoy a relaxing Hawaii beach vacation
in the bay area. Big
Island resorts include the Waikoloa complex and the
Hilton just north of the main resort. Flanking the Waikoloa
Resort is a crescent shaped white sand beach and a number
of turquoise coral lagoons ideal for snorkeling and swimming.
Visitors interested in Hawaii hiking excursions shouldn’t
miss the King’s Trail, a historical path meandering
by rock shelters, ancient Hawaiian sites and more than
two acres of Hawaii petroglyphs. The rustic lava road
was originally constructed between 1836 and 1855 and circles
around most of Big Island.
