Lydgate Beach Park

Lydgate Beach Park is one of the few beach parks that Kauai has with lifeguards. The beach can be found on Highway 56 in Wailua, on East Kauai, Hawaii. Lydgate Beach is one of the more popular destinations because one can actually swim in the water. The currents are not difficult, nor are the waves too dangerous. In fact it is calm and clear, which makes it perfect for swimmers and snorkelers. There is a pool enclosed by a boulder, where fresh water is contained. Fish can also be found in the pool, but the waves are kept out due to the boulder.

Some useful details about Lydgate Beach Park include the lifeguards, showers, restrooms, long sandy beach, good swimming, playground, and shady areas. To get to the beach go north towards Wailua. The parking lot is near Mile Market #5 off of Leho Drive. There is a second right to take to get to the beach and parking lot.

The beach is safe and fish feeding is allowed here. This often attracts a large crowd of people to the beach. The grassy areas are perfect for picnicking. There is a little bit of trail to make walking around the beach enjoyable too.
