Temae Beach

Located near Maharepa, Temae Beach is golden beach with public access featuring azure waters, rugged mountains and tall coconut trees.

Visitors and locals love lounging on the beach's soft sand, snorkeling for colorful fish and donning their reef shoes to explore the coral-filled crystal waters. What makes this beach truly worthwhile is the friendly locals who frequent the beach, playing drums and ukeles and performing dance routines.

One thing to be aware of is the coconut trees. While beautiful, they can be dangerous as being hit in the head by a falling coconut can be fatal.

On the weekends, you'll often find events, festivals and barbecues taking place on the beach.
