Monday is ''Gay Day" at Kehena Beach
A long time tradition at Kehena Beach is for the gay community to show up at the beach on Mondays. You'll meet gay people there everyday... there's a large gay community in the neighborhood. Many subdivisions in the area are over 60% gay (including Kalapana and Puna Beach Palisades). Awesome body surfing in big waves. A resident pod of spinner dolphins show up often and you could get to swim with them! Moderately steep trail down to the beach..... well worth it! Skinnydipping with dolphins! What could be more fun???
The Best Part of a Boring Island
As boring as Hilo (and the Big Island in general) is, this black sand beach is phenomenal. What a pleasant surprise. The directions to get to the beach, as described above, are correct and accurate. I used them to get there. There is, however, a steep climb down to the beach. Once you there, though.... truly amazing. Clean, black sand, ruff surf and peaceful. Yes, there is nudity and I guess you can do naught things there, but enjoy the black sand and the view. Most people don't get a chance to experience a place like Kahena Beach. Enjoy it!
Breathtaking!
We love this beach, and yes we do have the Vacation Rental right across from it, The Bali Cottage at Kehena Beach. Please vsit our website when you can become part of our Ohana. http://www.thebalicottage.com. Mahalo!
Breath Taking
Wow this is truly a peaceful place to hang out in the nude. Lots of hot bods soaking up sunshine and body surfin'. Do not miss this gem if you are in the east side of da Big Island!
