We do care. Be safe while on your Kaua’i vacation.
Activites, Hawaii, Hiking, Kauai, Summer Travel, Things to do, Travel Tips, Vacation rentals, WeatherWe know how excited you are for your upcoming Kaua’i trip. So now is the time to plan and learn about ocean safety and travel tips. Don’t wait until you get here. The more information you have before you come – can make a world of a difference. We care about your safety and want you and your Ohana (family) to have the most awesome vacation with great memories that will last a lifetime.
Most people think Summer, palm trees swaying, turquoise calm ocean, waves washing up on shore, and sunshine. Well that is not always the case. The conditions vary depending every where you go in Hawai’i. That is why Allure Kaua’i strongly suggest that all visitors go to beaches with lifeguards on duty. This is for your safety and comfort. There are many beaches that do not have lifeguards on duty. Our resources are limited – so please be mindful. IF IN DOUBT, DON’T GO OUT! So please pay special attention to signs posted on the beaches. Don’t be afraid to ask questions or consult with a local official or guide on ocean safety and tips.
There are so many things to do on Kaua’i from hiking to zip line tours. Just remember – hiking on Kaua’i is a must do, but be selective on hiking trails to go on. Off the beaten path trails are not recommended, unless you consult with a guide first. There are hiking tips that you will need to learn about for each trail. Stay on track, be safe, and enjoy!
We care. So take a moment to learn about ocean safety and hiking tips before your Kaua’i vacation.

These vacation rentals are located in a residential community. Please respect the area, your neighbors, drive with caution and slow down – there is no rush, observe road signs, ‘smile’, recycle, conserve electricity, and always show ‘Aloha’. House rules are listed within the rental property. Please respect them at all times.
The County of Kaua’i issue permits to the approved vacation rentals in non VDA areas. The permits will begin with TVNC, TVNCU, or SP for a special permit. Please check with your agent on rentals in Kaua’i. All rentals shall have a tax identification number.

We ask that you please sit back, relax, and enjoy your vacation here on beautiful Kaua’i with care and respect.
Tunnels Beach, Kauai
Activites, Best beaches, Fishing, Haena, Shelling, Snorkeling, Summer Travel, Surfing, Swimming, Things to do, Travel TipsTunnels Beach also known as Makua, is an epic snorkeling and scuba beach during the calm Summer months. It is located on the north shore of Kauai in Ha’ena. There is no lifeguards on this beach. During the Fall and Winter months (October thru March) we do not recommend snorkeling or swimming as ocean conditions can be very dangerous. We want our visitors and guests enjoy vacation time safely. Parking can be a challenge. It is best to arrive before 9:30 am to be able to find parking and before the crowd shows up. You might want to consider staying in one of our Haena Vacation Rentals so that it is convenient for you to spend quality time here. You can walk over any time of day and enjoy this spectacular beach.
Tunnels when it is calm is good for snorkeling the inside reef. You’ll see tropical fish and may even be lucky enough to swim with sea turtles. Manifest! I’m always grateful for this amazing place, the views, and the underwater life here. The best snorkeling is up towards the point just before the reef ends. Always pop your head up, feel the movement in the water, and be cautious at all times. This is no place to space out. You can easily get carried away and sucked out in to the current outside.The surf break outside the outer reef is where you will find local surfers riding some pretty awesome waves. Bring a binocular so you can scope them out. A surf break for only those who are more experienced.
Here you can enjoy a relaxing walk for miles on a white sand beach. The sand is thicker at Tunnels, and it feels so good on your feet. You can find shells and be in awe with the views of Mount Makana. It is also known as Bali Hai from the movie South Pacific. Enjoy the day, bring lots of food and water, and relax. You are on vacation in beautiful North Shore Kauai.
The beach is located just past the 8 mile marker on Hwy 560 you’ll find beach access for the best snorkeling. If for any reason parking is a problem you will need to go to the Haena State Park (across the dry cave) and walk up to the right of the beach towards the main Tunnels beach area. The beach in front of the parking lot here is nicknamed ‘Puka’s’. You can ask the lifeguard any questions.
Important Reminder: Malama Aina which means ‘Take Care of the Land’. Be sure to pack out what you pack in, including cigarette butts. We see it all the time and it is so disrespectful when our beach is used as an astray. We Mahalo (Thank) you for respecting our island. You can also help us protect our reefs by not stepping on them. Use certified REEF SAFE or REEF FRIENDLY sunscreen only. These sunscreens do not contain oxybenzone and octinoxate, two common UV-blocking chemicals, that studies have shown can cause coral bleaching. All other sunscreens will damage our reef and marine life. The spray cans we do not recommend as they end up spraying everyone else on the beach, but you. If you do use it spray it in to the palms of your hand closely and apply to your body.
