This is a unique spot. The road to access it is closed and signs are not very welcoming. However, we went for sunrise and enjoyed the place to ourselves (and didn't feel like we were encroaching on the locals).

Take a boogie board because the waves are rough and fun. DONT take the sand and rocks - the Hawaiians believe you'll be cursed, but more practically it just erodes the beach. Park in the free lot, walk down the steps, tuck your things in one of the little dry coves against the cliff, and enjoy…
