Just off Highway 30 sits Waihikuli Wayside Park. Snorkeling conditions can get rough at times, so you may want to check out beaches to the north or south. The beach here is quite rocky, so enter from the small sandy patches scattered throughout the narrow park. More advanced swimmers can try snorkeling to Hanaka'o'o beach, wich is about a half mmile from Waihikuli.

Facilities for Waihikuli include:

• Shade
• Covered picnic areas
• Parking
• Restrooms and showers at the north end of the beach

From Olowalu, head north on Highway 30. Watch for mile marker 23 and turn left, toward the ocean, and enter the park. For the best snorkeling, enter at the sandy area in the middle and head north. There is good snorkeling near the shore in water that is about 5-10 feet deep.
