When researching what beach to choose why look to other parts of the globe when we have so many amazing beaches right in our own backyards. O.K. so this beach may not be as close as our backyard but it's still in the United States. Hanalei Bay located at latitude 22°12'34.95"N and longitude 159°29'50.51"W on the north shore of the island Kauai in Hawaii. This bay consists of 2 miles of smooth white sandy beach in a half moon shape. Tide ranges from -.1 meter to 1.2 meters. Hanalei Bay is known for it incredible surf with wind waves up to 3.65 meters and northwest swells up to 2.13 meters. Despite the great surf this bay boasts incredible scenery with its incredible mountains standing right in the background of the beach. This beach also has a pier that extends out over the water to allow you to watch the surfers, fish, or just relax and watch the waves break.
