    We went to the overlook of the beach. This was one of the most beautiful places we visited on Oahu. The southeast coast of Oahu is very beautiful.

    Was lucky enough to get walk in tickets. If you try to go this way, be there BY 6:30am. We were lucky enough to get the last 4 tickets in! What a great day!

    Beautiful scenery. Peaceful, and relaxing. 10 minutes walk to the bus station cross highway 72 at Sea Life Park, or parking is alongside the highway right by the beach.
  • By Ru Wi
    We were here in November 2006!. Nice place to relax. Quiet beach and waves for surfing.
  • By JE NP
    Rough waves, more for surfing and similar water sports. Beautuful place for pics, camping, and relaxing by the beach.
  • By Tabjula Akhil
    I would say this is one of the under rated beaches. Best for surfing and spending time with your company. Currents are better than sandy beach ( they are not as rough as sandy beach). Also, a beautiful view of the sunrise with cool breezes. Do not forget to go to a view spot to get areal view of the beach
  • By Whitney Lam
    The beach has great waves! There is no shade at this beach but it’s worth the trip.
