Introduce tots to the ocean at this beach, where the water is barely thigh high. The sandy shore runs behind the beach homes on Ho‘ona Rd west of Koloa Landing. Access is easy – look for the sign marking the path – but parking is limited (don’t block driveways). There’s another Baby Beach in Kapa‘a on the Eastside.
