This is a popular surfing beach during the winter and lots of locals frequent here. Car theft is high here, so do not leave any valuables in your car if you walk to the beach. This is also a popular spot for kayaking and the last spot on the north shore where boats can enter the water.
When winter storms hit, the waves and surf here are very dangerous due to the rocks. The Honokohau Stream enters the bay on the south end of the beach. Beware of flooding during or after heavy rain.
