I had to have a nap before doing anything else on Wednesday. The early start had caught up with me! After the nap we went to another south shore beach — Shipwreck Beach. It was so named because it used to feature one but it is long gone now.
This beach fronts the Hyatt resort and a golf course but can be accessed by anyone since beaches are public in Hawaii. The scenery was spectacular with high surf and cliffs and lava rocks and palm trees! The sun went behind clouds to set so it was shady and cooler on the beach which was so nice!
Surfers and others boarders were enjoying the waves and we enjoyed watching them ride and crash in them!
The cliffs are called Makawehi Point and there is a path to the top. Popular spot for fishing and jumping off into the ocean. Yes I said jumping. Two young boys did just that while we were there! I was scared for them because the ocean was churning so strongly and the waves were crashing up against the rocks. But they made it not once but 3 times! I was so thankful Ryan and Nathan were not there! 🙂
