Pali Ke Kua (Hideaways) Beach

Pali Ke Kua Beach, also called Hideaways, requires a nice 15 minute hike down 120 feet to the ocean. The trail to the beach begins to the right of the Princeville Resort gate house at the end of Ka Haku Road. This path can be a bit tricky. The first part is stairs with a railing and the rest is just trail. If you aren't sure-footed you may want to try another beach, especially if it has been raining.

Also, monitor surf conditions as some nation conditions can crop up here. There is no lifeguard or facilities here. The swimming here is pretty decent and there are trees to offer shade while lounging. The reef also offers nice snorkeling.

Location: Pali Ke Kua (Hideaways) Beach is located in the North Kauai
