  • I was there for my older brother's celebration of life. The beach is perfect. Permits are required in order to pitch a tent.

  • If you are lucky you will get parking its super beautiful. But don't leave anything in your car anywhere in hawaii & there are bathrooms. Its a spiritually magical place :D

  • This park has parking but if you don't know it is here you will drive right past. The beach is not crowded. Locals were here when we came and they said it is normally quiet like when we were there...

  • This spot was so beautiful and calm when we visited, it was perfect for our little ones to float around in. The current was not strong or overwhelming and the water was beautiful and clear. We saw some small fish and a turtle which was definitely the highlight of the day there. The bathroom and showers were perfect and pretty clean and the parking was good when we got there. Hopefully when we visit again we will definitely go back to this perfect spot
  • I visited this beach for the first time with my kids on a Sunday. When we arrived around 11am it wasn't very crowded. We walked up the beach to the left and found a comfortable spot with plenty of space. The water was calm enough to take my kids snorkeling and we even found an awesome old bottle on the bottom of the ocean! There were small bits of seaglass here and there along the beach. There were also a few trees that offered shade. My kids enjoyed making "castles" with the many sticks and nuts they found lying around. I think this is a great beach for all with lots to offer. Definitely 5 stars for the crystal clear water and the beautiful views!!!
  • Beautiful white sand beach with some decent snorkeling. Waves are pretty low and it's right near the original Robin's Nest building, AKA the Magnum P.I. house from the show in the 80s. There's a hidden pillbox in the water inside of the sea wall area. Parking is scarce so be patient, you might have to park in the grass. Take all your trash with you and don't step on the coral!
  • Great spot to go if you want to get away from the big crowds over at Waikiki. There was some weather there when we went so we didn't stay long. Snorkeling can be good as there are more rocks below and waters are not rough as well. We even saw a little crabby too! If you like the view but not being in the sand this is also perfect since there is space close to the shore and separated picnic spots. There are public restrooms and lots of space for parking.
  • The name Kaiona, means" attractive sea" in Hawaiian. The waters at Kaiona Beach are an amazingly vibrant turquoise color and the sands are a pale white soft texture that feels so comfortable to wriggle your toes into. The horizon itself is also a wonder to look at,and it is made even more interesting with the dynamic rolls of the wave and the far off small island.  On a sunny day, the water is so clear that you might think you’re swimming in a pool rather than the ocean.  Mokoli'i Island can be seen from the beach or reach by canoe.
