On our way to the north this morning we had a change of mind. The weather forecast for the north was not so good. We decided to go to Gillin’s beach instead. It is just a dirt road away from where we stay. Ok, a Hyatt, a golf course, and a dirt road away. Arriving at Gillin’s beach we changed our mind again and continued on the dirt road for another few hundred meters and ended up at the Kawailoa bay.

At first it looked like a deserted beach with not so good possibilities to swim. However, it turned out to be quite a nice beach. Big with not so many visitors and quite nice swimming. Much better than at Gillin’s beach.

During the lunch we had a visit by a red bird. It wanted to have some chips. When it got some it just grabbed it and flew away. After a while he was back again wanting more.

After the lunch we had a walk along the beach and on a trail leading away from the beach. It was a beautiful walk along rocks, cliffs, beautiful scenery, and splashes of water.

It was really beautiful scenery. And it was the first time we went here.

We didn’t really want to return to the beach…

When we got tired to the Kawailoa bay we went to Poipu just to make sure there were no Hawaiian Monk seals there. We were lucky. One was sleeping at the Brennecke’s beach next to Poipu beach. There were also several sea turtle in the water.
