Waialae Beach Park, Oahu

Waialae Beach Park at a Glance

Waialae Beach Park is located right next to the Kahala Hotel & Resort (and near the Waialae Country Club) in Kahala on Oahu’s south shore, about 3 miles (4.8 km) east of Waikiki. Waialae Stream flows right through Waialae Beach Park and into the ocean, where its waters have formed a wide channel through the reef. The stream divides the park into two sections and a white stone bridge connects them.

Waialae Beach is narrow and sandy with some coral rubble that has washed ashore. There’s a small man-made island at the east end of the beach, which was built in 1963 during the construction of the Kahala Hotel & Resort. A surf site named Razors is located on the west side of the channel. The beach park is frequented by picnickers, surfers and windsurfers, but is never crowded. Swimming conditions are fair here because of the shallow reef.

Waialae Beach is so cool! It is much better than Waikiki Beach, especially the part in front of the Kahala hotel. Love to go there!

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 click here to read more about ocean safety in Hawaii.
