Kalopa State Recreation Area

Great place for swimming and amazing views 🙌🏼

If you're looking for something different to do instead of going snorkeling in the overly crowded Hanauma Bay, opt for a sunset hike on the rim trail instead where you get both the beautiful bay as well as the majestic Koko Head Crater behind it.

TIP: go on a Tuesday when the Bay is closed to get this shot with no people in it!

8.6/10 Excellent! (521 reviews)

The room was clean and as expected. The view was pretty and the pool area was really nice. The reason we booked here is they include free parking which was great. A short walk to the beach and so many places to eat and shop close by. Our family of 4 really enjoyed it.
