Staying at Turtle Bay Resort? Then don’t miss exploring the trails leading to peaceful Kawela Bay. Follow the signs from the resort and choose your own path with a series of trails that range from 1/2 mile to 3 miles and take you through areas filled with old World War II Bunkers, Banyan forests, and beautiful beaches. You could potentially see turtles, whales, mongoose, and all types of birds while you’re exploring the trails and Kawela Bay. Just make sure to bring some water, snacks, and sunscreen.
