Just east of Leleiwi, you’ll find Richardson Beach Park. The calm, protected waters are perfect for beginner snorkelers. You’ll often spot turtles here, and kids and adults alike enjoy exploring the surrounding tide pools. If you head to Richardson for the day, make sure you check out the sand, which is a mixture of black volcanic sand and green olivine crystals. Although the olivine concentration here is far less than you’ll see at Papakolea, it still shows off a unique color.
