On Feb. 20, Travellers Worldwide put out its list of 24 best beaches in the United States in 2023.

Only one Big Island beach made the list, but it was at No. 1: Hapuna Beach Recreation Area, north of Kailua-Kona on the west side of the island.

The publication said: Although not well-known, the Hapuna Beach area in Hawaiʻi is, in many ways, the ideal beach for many people. This landscaped park has clean and calm water, soft sand, and a spot far enough away from the more popular areas that there are rarely big crowds. The waves are excellent, and the small fees go directly into maintaining the area. If there’s one flaw, it’s that Hapuna Beach doesn’t have too much shade.
