Sunrise and Sunset Locations

Finding an image that has the right location that you're looking for is important. You could be looking for the sandy beaches on Maui like Baby Beach, or the Ka'anapali Beach on Maui, a rocky shore with exploding wave breaks along Ke'e Beach on Kauai, or the stunning black sand beaches The Big Island. There's no shortage of gorgeous beaches which is all part of the draw to any of the Hawaiian Islands and given you're always near a beach, that means you'll either see a sunrise or a sunset but let's be real...day or night, there's no wrong time of day to enjoy the beach and no time that isn't one you'd want to relive at home.

Joe Garza has an full collection of Hawaii, Maui, and Kauai beach scenes that can whisk you back to Hawaii from your own home.

Beyond Sand and Water

Must-haves for a beach are sand and water. Let's talk about the nice-to-haves. What else is it that you've connected with on these beautiful tropical islands that you want to relive at home? Maybe it's the palm trees (that can live for over 100 years and one variety can reach up to 200 feet tall!), or the sea shells, or the sea turtles, or piers, boats, and lighthouses that you're looking for in the scene.

Consider what those additional elements beyond sand and water that is meaningful to you.

The waves were crashing at Kua Bay beach along the rocks as this Hawaiian sea turtle was a storm rider riding the surf.

I had the awesome opportunity to do some underwater photography of this turtle with the waves crashing into the rocks. This scene reminded me of a storm as the waves crashed and turbulence of bubbles rised to the surface. The turtle seemed to just float in the water like a bobber. Storm rider was born!
