Located on Hawaii’s Big Island, the Hapuna Beach State Recreation Area is a popular destination spot, counted as among the best beaches in the world. Hapuna Beach was named the Best Beach in America by the Florida International University in 1993.
The breath-taking natural landscape with its white sands extends to 200′ during the summer months when the waves recede and the sea is calm. Often, the beach divides into two, exposing lava rocks that remain hidden in the cliffs.
