This is the end of the road, literally. Parking is a big problem. If you walk down the beach away from the life guard station, the crowd thins out very quickly and the view down the Napali coast is worth it. Often, especially in the winter, it is difficult to get in the water here. The trail head for the Kalalau Trail is here too.
