Parks & Nature
You can't drive into the valley and it's quite beautiful. 30 minutes down and hopefully about the same back up. Black sand beach, river going into the ocean, and surf sometimes. Be careful though, no lifeguard.

It's a blast into the past of Hawaii, and it's a beautiful spot. You can swim and snorkel there too, but it's not a beach park--you cannot leave things on the beach.
