    Rubbish..... I went to the dog park and I googled it.... wasn't the park in the picture. There are lots of homeless people in the grass and restrooms. The dog park looks to be unkempt.

    Great skate park. Choke cronies but really honestly never had a bad experience when I'm skating or have my kids at the playground.

    I love this park , it's right near the beach and it's has L&L food stand two of them and you can lay on the grass and get a tan , you can also see church gatherings on Sunday or watching families having a wonderful time

    Perfect early morning skate sesh. Cool weather, breezy, only ones in the park. (Easy free parking)

  • 5/5 Prophetess H. 9 months ago on Google
    This is a great family oriented environment. They even have free range chickens and baby chicks running around. The water was amazing. The surroundings were well shaded, as well as plenty of sun. And the food trucks are great as well.

  • 5/5 Nikima G. 9 months ago on Google
    Probably one of the better skate parks in the area. Lots of sleeping areas. People are friendly, but dehydrated and hungry. Would benefit from setting up a free water and snack station.

    It's the skateboard park! Homeless folk are relatively harmless, although very visible. Don't leave anything unattended!

  • 3/5 Alan R. 1 year ago on Google
    Kinda worn down and unattended. There are no tables there that I could see. There are some cement structures that encase the trees and that's what we used to sit down and eat our Poke we got from Tamashiro Market.

    Great takeout for quick Chinese Food. Roast Duck excellent.

  • 5/5 Dean O. 3 years ago on Google
    Good place to skate. Not too crowded in the morning and it has free parking, but the people use the parking to go to shop in Chinatown. Got enough types of drops and ramps for the beginner as well as the advanced.

    Its better than 3 years ago. Better lighting Awesome seeing Police presents. And No homeless camp.

  • 4/5 Tantra Tokyo Love H. 1 year ago on Google
    West Oahu's Best skate park for parents who need to watch kids in shade, open field for dogs to run but if you DON'T SKATE its probabaly a 1 star. Even if youre houseless. The bathrooms are dirty.

  • 5/5 Sugar cookie L. 1 year ago on Google
    A lot of houseless people. My dog didn't really like the dog park. Of course she's a rescue and she's a little sensitive to things. There's a lot of theft on a daily basis and violence on a daily basis

  • 1/5 Annie C. 2 years ago on Google
    Beautiful park but very sketchy and unsafe..a lot of crime, drugs and homelessness has taken over that park and whole area unfortunately. Not a spot to ever visit

  • 4/5 Laura K. 3 years ago on Google
    Aala park is nice and cool. It has big shade trees. Parking is small but at certain times only there will be no parking available. A nice place for families to picnic.

    I like going there because my son loves to go to the Skate Park. Everyone at The Skate Park is always so kind and friendly to my son. Last week or the week before my husband's good friends friend gave my son a skate board . Which was very generous of him. Thank Goodness for people with Aloha.
