    Awesome, sandy beach with great views and less people.

    You park up top and walk down a lot of steps to this somewhat secluded beach. You need to bring all your food and gear, and there are no bathrooms down at the beach, but you'll be rewarded with great views and less crowds. Also,...More

    This cute little beach is great for hanging out but can be crowded - watch out for rip tides as they can be dangerous here. There are stairs down to the beach which will require some level of fitness. There are safe places to swim...More

    Great family beach

    Went snorkeling there. I'm old and had some trouble carrying all my gear thru the heavy waves. But it was well worth it.

    Pretty beach but not for beginners

    15-foot high waves, beautiful scenery. Not for beginner swimmers but a great beach to relax on. A few rocks in the surf and a wicked undertow, so watch out.

    pretty beach with nice waves

    I was looking for a snorkeling spot and found this beach instead. It's located in a pretty cove and not too crowded. What's not to like?

    Great beach for boogie boarding or swiming in huge waves

    Great secluded cove; shallow, sandy shoreline... big breaking waves so make sure you’re a strong swimmer if the waves are breaking hard. Parking is limited so arrive early.

    The waves at Slaughterhouse can be quite big in November... it depends how good you are at Boogie Boarding. Snorkeling is better at Honolua Bay which is right ‘next door’ to Slaughterhouse. I’ve seen people snorkel at... More
