Lumahaʻi Beach

About

Lumahaʻi Beach is a beach on the north shore of Kauai, Hawaii. Situated at the mouth of Lumahaʻi River, is accessed along Hawaii Route 560 near Wainiha, between Hanalei and Haʻena State Park. Due to strong waves, currents and undertow, the beach and bay are considered unsafe for swimming and surfing most of the year. Breadfruit trees are said to have been planted here by a Menehune named Weli. Lumahaʻi Beach was featured in the 1958 film South Pacific.
