Red Sands. The hike to Kaihalulu Beach is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, many lose their footing on the loose crumbling cinder trail. This trail has caused catastrophic injuries and deaths nearly weekly. This is not a safe hike for children, the elderly, pregnant women, those scared of heights or anyone that has any kind of injury. Ensure your hands are free to help stabilize yourself, it is recommended that you wear proper shoes and have a backpack (or take nothing with you). Police, firefighters and our EMT’s here do not advise travelers embark on this hike. The beach is clothing optional.

Just a few yards past mile marker 25 on the Hana Highway, around the bend from the previous stop, you should see a steep downhill turn off for Nahiku Road makai. The road is lush and surrounded by a jungle setting - even the trees have plants growing on them. With 300 inches of rain a year, no wonder Nahiku is a paradise for all things green. The road is lined with rubber trees, remnants from a plantation that went defunct nearly a hundred years ago. t the end of the road (about 2.5 miles down) you'll come to the gorgeous scenic bay at Opuhano Point. Looking to your left over Honolulunui Bay, the coastal views are some of the very best on the entire road to Hana.
