Overview

The same rough waves that gave this beach its name make it a dangerous place to swim. However, the rusting hulks offshore draw plenty of sightseers. One unfortunate Liberty ship ran aground a few hundred feet out and remains there in its entirety. Other bits and pieces of old ships are all around the reefs. This is a good place for walking, beachcombing and exploring. An interesting group of petroglyphs are nearby, and anyone with enough motivation can hike all the way up the coast to Polihua Beach.
