Our Makahuena Point in Kauai condos are set in a beautifully landscaped property in the quiet resort community of Makahuena Point in the South Shore’s sunny Poipu. The quiet, palm-lined streets are ideal for morning walks, and several pristine beaches are within walking distance. These ideally located condos are positioned right in between the renowned Poipu Beach Park and Brennecke’s Beach to the west, and Shipwreck’s Beach to the east. When you’ve had your fill of lounging by the poolside with a good book, heading in either direction will give you plenty of beach time and activity options.
It’s just a short walk from our Makahuena Point condos to Brenneke’s Beach. Brenneke’s is most popular for body boarding and body surfing. Experienced surfers can paddle out to the offshore swell. All of the rentals you need, such as boogie boards and surfboards, can be found at nearby Nukumoi Surf Shop.
With picnic tables under shaded pavilions, a playground, and a wide range of water activities, Poipu Beach is popular with both local and tourist families. This is a great spot to pack a lunch for an ocean-side picnic. The left end of the beach provides a shallow, reef-protected swimming area. With the serene water and nearby lifeguards, this is an ideal location for small children. Following the beach further to the right will take you out onto a point, which is a popular snorkeling spot. Head into the underwater world to get a close-up look at rainbow fish, parrot fish, and honu (sea turtles). On occasion you might find a monk seal napping on the sand. Further to the right, in front of Marriott’s Wiohai Beach Club, is another great swimming location. More experienced surfers can paddle out to catch the waves. All of the rentals you need, including snorkel set, beach chairs, and umbrellas, are conveniently across the street from Poipu Beach at Nukumoi Surf Shop.
Less than a mile from the Poipu vacation rentals, you will find Shipwreck’s Beach. This golden sand beach is a local favorite for surfing and body surfing. While the strong shore break creates conditions less than ideal for swimming, those looking to participate in water sports will enjoy this coastline. A 40-foot cliff looms against the east end of the beach, the site of the famed cliff jumping scene from the film Six Days Seven Nights. Locals can often be found jumping here into the ocean far below. The start of the Maha’ulepu Trail is along the top of the cliff, which winds its way along beaches and cliffsides for two miles until ending at Maha’ulepu Beach. This gentle trek affords nonstop sweeping ocean views across this windswept coast. Those not wanting to tackle the full 4-mile out-and-back hike can just enjoy part of the trail before turning back.
Beyond the beaches, there are plenty of other attractions within a close distance to our Makahuena Point condos, which means you can spend more time enjoying the outdoors and less time driving.
Spouting horn is just down the road, where you can observe water shooting high into the sky as waves force seawater through narrow openings in the lava rocks. Bring your cameras along because this phenomenon can shoot up to fifty feet in the air.
