4.7 (175)park
4.7 (175)A wild coastal path across rugged lava fields, leading to a haven for nesting albatrosses and monk seals.
Description
Marking the west side of Oahu’s northwest corner, the park’s Keawaʻula section opens onto a large sandy beach at Keawaʻula Bay. Ocean recreation comes with distinct conditions: the water draws board surfing and body surfing for experts, with swimming only during calm conditions in the summer. Along the wild coast, the area also accommodates shoreline fishing and picnicking, supported by on-duty lifeguards and a comfort station.
