6. Natural Bridge-Caverns at Natural Bridge are the deepest caverns on the East Coast and go 34 stories underground below the earth's surface to see nature's magnificent underground landscape of dripstone, flowstone, draperies, pools, stalactites, and stalagmites.
Location: Between PuÊ»upoa and Makahoa Points, Hanalei. Description: Hanalei Bay, the largest bay on KauaÊ»i, is bordered by a white sand beach approximately two miles long and 125 feet wide. The beach is located between Hanalei River to the east and Waipa River to the west.
We highly advise against swimming or snorkeling here, as the water can be very treacherous in this cove. A more popular beach in Hana town is just on the other side of Ka'uiki hill at Hana Bay. This beach is known as Kaihalulu (Red Sand) beach. The beach gets its red sand from lava cinders off Ka'uiki. The quickest way to access this beach is to take Ua'kea road past Hana Bay to where it dead ends at Hauoli Road. Make sure you park your car in the right direction (depending on which side of the road you're on-Hana police will ticket you otherwise). Article Edited/Contributed by: John C. Derrick.
