Kawaiku'i Beach Park

Kawaiku'i Beach Park, Oahu

Kawaiku'i Beach Park (view panorama) is easy to miss. It is located right off of Kalanianaole Highway right before Hawaii Kai when coming from Honolulu. For being a neighborhood park, this beach park is quite spacious. There is plenty of shade and a large grassy area with picnic tables.

The beach is narrow and there is not a lot of sand. It also smells a bit fishy and the nearshore waters are too shallow for a swim. The water looks brown here instead of blue. But the views are nice and it’s a great place for a picnic. Surfers enter the ocean here to reach the surf spots Manantan's, Tunas and Turtles, which are located at the outer edge of the reef.
