To get to Alligator Pond park your vehicle at the south end of Kokolio Beach park, walk across the field towards the shower and continue past it to the last beach path before the fence and houses. Once on the beach take a right and walk down to the point, it's maybe 300 yards down the beach.

Go Jump off Waimea Rock! Located just south of Sunset Beach it is easy to get to. Go early if you want to park close. It is a popular place and the lot is small. Although you can always park in the Waimea Falls parking lot across from the Bay. Similar to Sunset Beach, Waimea is a great place to relax and swim in the summer and waves get larger in the winter. Make sure to jump off Waimea Rock. There is also a large hole under the rock that you can swim all the way under the rock to the other side.

Best place to Snorkel! Located between Waimea Bay and Sunset Beach and across from Foodland Sunset. It is technically NOT a beach, more rocks; but it is free to snorkel here, you just need to either buy your own gear or rent some across the street. Again, go early because it get kind of tight for parking as time goes on. Plenty of sea life to explore.
