Queen's Bath

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


Queen's Bath is a unique ocean-connected swimming area in Kauaʻi, Hawaii. It is positioned on the edge of a cliff and the "pool" is surrounded by igneous rock. It is located on the north shore of Kauaʻi in the town of Princeville. The swimming area is accessible via a short trail. During the winter season, when the waves pick up, it is considered dangerous. Several people have died. When the surf is cooperating—usually in the summer months—the water is calm and clear. Views of the ocean and the rocky shoreline here are fantastic. Even when the surf is fairly calm, waves crash on the rocks shooting spray high into the air. Small fish and tiny sealife also call Queen's Bath home.
