Enjoying Molokai
Beaches
Kepuhi Beach
All Kepuhi Beach condos have a great view of this beach. You will love relaxing by the ocean. Swimming near the condo in the winter months is very dangerous. During the summer when the waves are much smaller you can swim on this beach and there's good snorkling.
Take a right on Kaluakoi Road out of the condo and drive less than a mile to the Papohaku Park. Or walk across Kepuhi Beach, take the path behind Kaiaka Rock, cross the road to Kaiaka Rock, continue on, it's about 1/4 mile to the beach. There are generally a set of nice tidepools on the south end of the beach, which is closest to us. Walking the beach is beautiful. There are a couple benches along the way.
Walk down to the pool, turn right and go past the Surfer beach, walk over the ditch and in front of Paniolo Hale condos, at the top of the hill you'll see the beach.
Take a right on KaluaKoi Rd out of condo and drive to the end of the road, about 3 miles to beach access.
