Hawaii beaches are renowned for their long stretches of white sand, great swimming, excellent surfing and body surfing and spectacular mountain backdrops. However, many beaches have unpredictable and often dangerous currents. Winter months bring regular high surf to the northern shores of the islands and not only make swimming dangerous but can also wash away the sand from the shore. By summer, the sand invariably returns. Summer storms conversely bring high surf to southern shores. If you're not a good swimmer, swim only where lifeguards are present or where man-made tidal pools protect the shores. There are lots of State Parks around the islands offering excellent amenities including lifeguards, picnic benches, barbecue stands, showers and camping. There are lots of large resorts and the more popular locations offer public access and parking. All beaches in Hawaii are public access areas.
In general, the best surf is found on Oahu, the most action at Waikiki, the most seclusion on the Big Island, the most scenically spectacular on Kauai, and the best swimming and snorkelling on Maui.
