Salt Pond Beach Park

  • Address: Lele Rd., Hanapepe, HI | Map It

Fodor's Review:

This popular park lies just west of some privately owned salt ponds where Hawaiians continue the traditional practice of harvesting salt (valued for its culinary and medicinal properties). They let the sun evaporate the seawater in mud-lined drying beds, then gather the salt left behind. You can't visit the ponds, but the beach park's protected swimming cove and campgrounds are worth a stop.
