Shipwreck Beach has this name because Kaiolohia Bay’s coral reef has wrecked numerous ships along its shore, and there is still the hull of a ghostly oil tanker from the 1940s stuck there. This is a good beach for surfing, but not so much for swimming because of the high waves. The beach has some amenities, such as showers, picnic tables, and restrooms.

Shipwreck’s Beach is a long stretch of golden sandy beachfront on the eastern side of Poipu. There are resorts and a large and grassy county park facility around Shipwreck Beach, and on the east side, there are some hiking trails around the cliffs. For most of the year, advanced surfers should paddle out to a short shore break. As long as visitors are safe around the shore break and keep their distance, they can walk, sunbathe, and enjoy this beach.
