Detailed Review
Sunset Beach is an artificial, man-made beach placed just a short stroll
past/behind Mihama American Village. Plenty of places to relax on the sand
or up in the shade of a pavilion. As you can guess from the name of the
beach, this is a spectacular spot to watch the sun go down. Seawall
alongside provides a decent walk, though it ends pretty quickly.
The water is very shallow and super calm - perfect for
a quick dip to get your feet wet and very safe for the little ones. Not a
ton of sand here nor adjoining park (like you will find at nearby
Araha beach and Pirateship Park and you will not find the crazy, intense
aqua blue waters of
Torii Beach, but it is still fun, convenient, and a great spot to catch a
sunset sometime. |
