Niumalu Beach Park

History
Niumalu Beach Park is a county beach park on Kauaʻi’s southeast coast along Nāwiliwili Bay, south of Līhuʻe, between the Hulēʻia National Wildlife Refuge and Nāwiliwili Beach Park and harbor. Beyond its recreational role, the site is tied to Kauaʻi’s political history: for much of the 19th century it was home to Paul Kanoa and his son Paul P. Kanoa, both Royal Governors of Kauaʻi. The hill above the beach later held county offices and then Kauai High School. In recent years mangroves altered the shoreline, and volunteers, including Boy Scouts, helped restore and clean up the area in 2014.
