La naturaleza es increíble, los servicios no muy buenos, caro y no lo vale, está aislado de comunicaciones el trayecto no está debidamente marcado y puedes tomar otro camino, lleva contigo 2 litros de agua por persona con miel para hidratarte, lleva fruta y unas barras, el camino es largo y lleva unas buenas botas para senderismo, mucha gente lleva zapatillas normales o flip-flop error, llega temprano para no tener que lidiar con el calor. Lleva un cambio de ropa así como calcetines extras.

Un camino muy dificil para lo que es. No lo recomiendo. No se ve nada en el final (bonito)

Una mala experiencia.... sin posibilidad de acceso ni en coche ni andando.... y no te venden el ticket de un dólar en la entrada. Horrible el hombre de barba blanca que se fuma un puro en una reserva natural.

Context: was late to book parking lot-only tickets, so had to pay for shuttle tickets for four, including my mom and 5 yr old. Honestly not worth that money, but definitely some unique reasons to come here. Had I come alone with my spouse and been able to do the full hike, I might've given 5 stars. 4 stars reflects my particular experience this time.

The beach area that is actually watched by lifeguards is small, but walking to the right down to the rope swing and creek is a cute stroll. The sand and water was surprisingly warm, even early on an overcast morning. While the waves are definitely rough further out, the area directly in front of the lifeguard area is set in a bit and yields some manageable and fun body surfing waves.

Spouse and I did the first half mile of the hike up until the first major overlook where you can see the entire coast. Being a bit out of shape we were worried it would be too intense, but it wasn't so bad, although definitely need to tread carefully since the rocky path is very uneven.

The trees on the beach and their roots are very cool, as many have reported.

Bathroom facilities, outside shower, and water station close to the lifeguard station.

Definitely book week+ in advance for parking-only admission.

Hiked to the first falls in January. While the mud was treacherous in places, the overall experience was incredible. The water crossings presented fun challenges to avoid getting wet. There is a 1 eyed trail cat at the beach that follows people up and down the trail hoping for treats. There is ridiculous amounts of climb. You will climb to get to climbs. Nothing real technical though.

01/2025: $40 pp is way too much to charge visitors to a State Park, especially when lifeguards say cannot snorkel at Ke’e Beach (the only easily accessible and swimmable one here) despite saying can go “up to waist in the water”. This visit was very overpriced and disappointing. The beach was not worth it, especially when the lifeguards didn’t try to “work with tourists” to make the visit more in line with their purpose of visit, instead just sitting in the rescue car all morning. The only highlight was the monk seal lying on the beach.

I had hiked and camped the Na Pali coast >30 years ago when it was free and beautiful. I suppose it’s still beautiful but the $40 pp fee is outrageous for a state park.

Very disappointed, will never come back and unless you are hiking the Kalaulau trail to the end, there are much better and value added experiences on Kauai than this overpriced Ke’e beach. It’s hyped up way more than it’s worth, seriously.
