Fodor's Review:

Beachcombers come to this fairly accessible beach for shells and washed-up treasures; photographers for great shots of Molokai, just across the 9-mi-wide Kalohi Channel; and walkers for the long stretch of sand. It may still be possible to find glass-ball fishing floats but more common is waterborne debris from the Molokai channel. Kaiolohia, its Hawaiian name, is a favorite local diving spot. An offshore reef and rocks in the water mean that it's not for swimmers, though you can play in the shallow water on the shoreline.
