13. Tunnels Beach: USA
Snorkeling in Kauai doesn’t get better than Tunnels Beach. While snorkeling you could stumble upon sea life, sea caves, sea turtles, and if you’re lucky, a monk sea turtle! Toward the west are a beautiful cluster of jagged, lush peaks that flank the beach. The scenery makes a trip worth it even if you don’t snorkel. Backed by the Waianae Mountain Range and Makua Valley, your eyes will find plenty to do. And if you surf, even better! Tunnels beach is one of Hawaii’s top surf destinations. Head to the beach in the morning to view dolphins. They like to eat early! A trail at the northwest tip of the beach beckons a nice hike. You won’t fins a lack of activity at Tunnels Beach.
