The site of the Wanderlust Festival, the spot has also served as a filming location for Lost and The Hunger Games: Catching Fire. Turtle Bay is fresh off a multi-million renovation, refurbishing 450 of its rooms and opening a new 11,000-square-foot spa, two restaurants and a bar. The five-mile beach is ideal for snorkeling, while there are activities like horseback riding and hiking for landlubbers. The resort is eco-friendly, utilizing solar energy and sourcing food their onsite farm. At ocean-facing Sunset Bar, you can catch live music and watch the pros hang ten on the nearby waves.”
