This
State
Park
has
a
little
bit
of
everything,
for
a
day
visit
or
even
for
an
hour.
You
can
stop
in
and
eat
your
lunch
in
the
first
parking
lot,
or
spend
a
day
with
friends,
family,
or
just
by
yourself
and
your
fur
baby,
but
be
sure
to
have
a
required
leash
on
your
canine
kids,
as
there
are
many
feline
friends
living
in
the
park,
in
appointed
areas,
and
we
wouldn't
want
them
hurt
by
an
unexpected
puppy
dog,
who
is
just
following
it's
basic
instincts.
You
can
go
fishing
from
the
shore,
on
the
shore
or
in
the
shore.
There's
surf,
there's
swimming,
there's
sunbathing,
(even
in
the
nude)
,
but
be
sure
DLNR
aren't
around,
for
citations
would
be
handed
out.
And
most
of
all,
there's
plenty
of
places
to
enjoy
a
nice
Hawaiian
BBQ,
or
family
Cookout,
or
a
Birthday
Bash,
or
to
Celebrate
a
Federal
or
State
Holiday.
The
views
of
Aloha
Tower
and
Downtown
are
just
spectacular,
at
times
you
can
watch
Cruise
ships
coming
in
to
dock,
or
a
wide
variety
of
Ocean
going
vessels
coming
in
to
Honolulu
Harbor.
At
the
other
end
of
the
park,
where
the
Girls
Softball
Complex
is,
there's
more
secluded
areas,
and
the
sunsets
are
just
incredible,
a
green
flash
is
almost
guaranteed.
The
park
is
maintained
and
taken
care
of
by
Jerome
and
his
family,
and
they
do
an
amazing
job,
and
the
never
ending
maintenance
and
new
renovations
are
constantly
improving
this
gem
in
the
middle
of
the
city,
which
in
itself
is
very
unique
and
you
won't
find
a
better
more
convenient
park
anywhere
in
the
USA.
I
highly
recommend
a
visit
here,
whether
your
a
local
Braddah
or
sistah,
Aunty
or
Uncle,
a
kama'aina,
or
a
tourist,
Sand
Island
always
delivers.
Don't
forget
the
closing
times
change
from
6:45
pm
to
7:45
pm
after
Memorial
Day,
and
back
again,
after
Labor
Day.
And
be
sure
to
adhere
to
those
times,
as
the
gates
will
be
closed
promptly.
And
please
help
keeping
the
park
clean
by
throwing
your
rubbish
in
the
green
cans,
and
any
recycleables
in
the
wire
buckets
near
them.
