Honolii Beach Park at a Glance
If you know your surf spots, you’ll know at a glance that
Honolii is a surfer’s paradise. Beautiful black sand, clear
blue water, and powerful waves make it one of the best surfing
spots on the island. But the real gems here are the dolphins-on
a good day, you can spot these friendly animals jumping
up alongside the surfers. If you’re lucky, a large whale
may even make a rare appearance.
Unlike most surf beaches on the Big Island, Honolii Beach
Park sees action all year round. In the summer, the waves
are relatively calm and ideal for beginning surfers. Winter
is the season of the pros, where the surf gets higher and
more challenging. A county lifeguard is on duty all day
to keep an eye on the surfers. In between seasons, the beach
is a popular spot for families and couples who want a quiet
refuge from the usually rowdy local beaches.
The shore is a nice spot for picnics and relaxation. A dense
grove of native trees grows along the area, providing lots
of shade and privacy. The trees are lined up beside a small
stream, a lesser-known but equally beautiful attraction.
Honolii Beach Park is just a few minutes’ drive from downtown
Hilo, an important historical town. If you’re staying in
the area, try taking a walk in the town and check out the
local attractions. There are plenty of shops, restaurants,
and museums around, and some even offer walking tours that
take you to the beach park.

Safety Tip
Whatever beach in Hawaii you visit, please have in mind that the ocean can
be very dangerous. Never turn your back against the waves and watch out for underwater
currents and always check the surf conditions. Pay attention to signs posted on
the beach. If you are not sure about the conditions, ask the lifeguards (if any
on the beach). Please
