Lumahai Beach, setting for a famous love scene from South Pacific

August = Aukake

Kauai's Lumahai Beach was featured in what classic 1958 film?

Located on the north side of the island of Kauai, Lumahai Beach features strong currents, waves, and undertow due to the unique geography of the area. Thus, during most of the year, it is generally not safe to swim and/or surf there.

Its scenic beauty, however, is good for viewing all year round. This beauty was captured for all time in a classic 1958 film as well as in numerous postcards and paintings.
