Donkey Beach

Donkey Beach is a secluded beach situated on the eastern shoreline of Kauai, Hawaii, USA. The beach is known for its soft, golden sand and the nearby pastures of mules and donkeys, which give the beach its name. Although it was once a popular location for nudist sunbathing, anti-nudity laws are now enforced. Trees on the southern end of the beach provide shade, making it an ideal spot for relaxation. However, the surf conditions can be dangerous, and snorkeling is not recommended. Families with young children should also be cautious of Monk Seals, which can make the beach unsuitable for them. Visitors can find public restrooms available at the parking area, but may need to bring wheels for heavy coolers when walking down and up a small hill to access the beach.
