Ala
Moana Beach Park, located between Waikiki and downtown Honolulu, is a
favorite beach among local Oahu residents. Often times less crowded than
Waikiki Beach, Ala Moana is a great place to swim, picnic, stroll on the
beach or to relax.
Wailea
Beach on Maui’s west coast is long and has golden sand. It’s one of five
beaches that are part of the Wailea resort complex, so it's often times
crowded. 
Kaena,
which means “red hot” or “glowing” in the Hawaiian language, is the name
of the northwestern tip of the island of Oahu. Kaena Point State Park is
so remote that no road leads here.
