Lydgate Beach is a scenic family beach that is very popular since it offers something for everyone including a park. Considered to be one of the safest places on the island for snorkeling, there are two large rock-enclosed pools great for children and offers safe swimming and snorkeling for beginners. There is a large lava-rock wall that protects swimmers year-round, and the ironwood groves provide shade. Kamalani playground has a wooden volcano and jungle gym, and bright ceramic sea creatures adorn the playground. Amenities include picnic pavilions, grills, showers, and restrooms, and there is a lifeguard on duty. If you are looking for land activity, stroll along the 2.5-mile paved coastal path.
