OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Reeds Bay Beach Park is located at the edge
of Banyan Drive. Reeds Bay boasts good
swimming and always calm waters. This inlet
is always calm, but the waters are usually
cold because of a nearby freshwater cold
spring that flows constantly.
Banyan Drive is less than a mile from the
downtown area, it is lined with large Banyan
trees planted by famous people, and it has a
small golf course across the street from all
the hotels. Banyan Drive is where most of
the hotels in Hilo are, and it is also
shared by Reeds Bay and a gorgeous
Japanese-style garden, Liliuokalani Park,
which is a beautifully landscaped park right
on the waterfront. |

PLEASE NOTE |

While
Hawaii's beaches can bring much enjoyment,
it is always a good practice to use common
sense while visiting them. Please be aware
of the wave & wind conditions before going
into the water. Mornings are usually best
for swimming, snorkeling or diving. Have
respect for the strength of the waves and be
aware that high surf can come up at any
time. NEVER turn your back to the ocean.
Be careful when exploring any rocky
shorelines. Waves can crash on the rocks and
knock you over easily, and the rocks may
also be sharp when walking on them.
When snorkeling or scuba diving, please have
respect for ocean life, and remember that
the coral reef is alive too. Avoid standing
on or touching if at all possible. |
