OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Whittington Beach Park lies on the southern
coast of the Big Island in Honuapo Bay. It
doesn't offer an array of activities, but it
is a great place for secluded camping. The
beach consists of mainly rocks and very
little sand. Water conditions are usually
rough and water activities should not be
attempted here. Fishing for a variety of
fish species is usually good at this park.
The facilities at this site include three
covered pavilions with picnic tables,
electric lights and cooking and cleaning
areas. The camping area is secluded and away
from the highway. Large trees of several
types provide shaded and partially shaded
camp sites. The county maintains restrooms
at this park, but no drinking water is
available. |
