Keei Beach - Beaches On Big Island Kealakekua, Hawaii

Ke'ei Beach is located close to Kealakekua Bay State Historical Park in the Kealakekua area of Hawaii's Big Island (and not to be confused with Ke'e Beach Park on Kaua'i). It's rarely used, except by locals who live around here. You can access the beach by driving down Ke'ei Road from Pu'uhonua Road but the road is in bad shape. If your GPS has you turning off onto a road with a closed gate, just head further up (north) on Pu'uhonua Road until you reach Keei Road and turn off there instead.

It's going to be a very bumpy drive, one that's best left for 4x4's and other vehicles with a lot of ground clearance. You might be best off parking your car before the road gets too bad and walking the rest of the way. Near the end you'll see some parking areas, possibly filled by those who opted for the extra insurance on their rental.

This beach is not ideal for swimming, but it is great for picnicking, snorkeling, surfing, fishing, or just relaxing away from everyone else. In fact, there's a good chance you'll be the only one here during the week. Enjoy the beautiful scenery, this is magazine quality stuff here. Unfortunately, you won't find any facilities here.

There is a great deal of historical significance here. This is where Battle of Mokuohai took place, which was King Kamehameha The Great's first battle in his effort to gain control of the Big Island of Hawaii.
