Located on the southeastern Kau coast of the Big Island, Punalu'u Black Sand Beach is one of the most famous beaches in Hawaii. The black sand is made from fragments of lava and totally worth the hour's drive from Hilo. It's also common to see Hawaiian Green Sea Turtles sunning on the beach, but be sure to keep your distance as they are endangered and protected. The strong currents make it risky to swim, but take heart; the view from the beach is quite beautiful.
