About Kehena Beach

Kehena Beach, a stunning jewel tucked away in Pahoa, Hawaii, beckons to those who embrace the naturist lifestyle. Known affectionately as "Dolphin Beach" due to frequent dolphin sightings, this secluded spot offers a serene escape where the sun kisses your bare skin. As a popular nude beach on the Big Island, Kehena is celebrated for its black volcanic sand and vibrant, welcoming community of regulars.

Legally recognized as a clothing-optional beach, Kehena invites nudists and naturists to enjoy its pristine environment without the confines of attire. This beach is not just about baring all but also about connecting with nature and others who share a passion for FKK (Freikörperkultur or Free Body Culture). Accessibility might challenge some, as reaching the beach requires a short but steep descent. However, the breathtaking views and liberating atmosphere are well worth the effort.

While amenities are minimal, the charm of Kehena lies in its raw, natural beauty and the camaraderie among beachgoers. Remember to bring essentials like water, sunscreen, and perhaps a picnic, as the nearest facilities are a drive away. Whether you're a seasoned naturist or exploring the clothing-optional lifestyle for the first time, Kehena Beach offers a unique opportunity to commune with nature and like-minded individuals.

Step into the freedom of Kehena, where the waves dance freely and so can you!
