Excellent for boogie boarding
The beach offers consistent medium to large waves with a sand bottom.
Arrive early on weekends
Parking fills up by mid-morning on busy days, though the lot is less crowded than nearby Waimanalo and Kailua beaches.
Expect strong waves and currents
The shorebreak is powerful and the beach has a steep decline with strong undertow.
Bring shade and supplies
Norfolk pine and ironwood trees provide shade, but there are no shops nearby, so bring food.
