Green Sands Beach

The unusual green colored sand at this beach is because of the high quantity of Olivine in it. Olivine is a semi-precious stone which was formed from the ancient volcanic eruptions of Kilauea volcano. This beautiful beach can be reached from South Point Road, but you will need a 4 wheel drive vehicle, or if you want to walk, it's approximately 1 hour by foot from the bottom of south point road.
