Outrigger Canoe Club Beach

Beach

👍👍 My parents are members and this spot is very nice ! They even have a mama seal that lays on the private beach ! I was surprised the food was so affordable in the swimming and lunch area !

Waikīkī Beach Center

Beach

👍👍 Lovely calm beach. Located infront of the Hyatt. It's more of a giant swimming pool, as the rock wall blocks any waves. It gets very crowded during the day. It's convenient, and nice, but there are much nicer beaches on Oahu!

4.90 (58 reviews) (~27.06 km from centre)

Banzai Beach

Beach

👍👍 There used to be a Google listing for Banzai Pipeline but it has disappeared. Maybe it is because they want to keep this place a secret from the tourists. This is one of the most beautiful tranquil beaches in the world. I am not exaggerating. I can understand why they would want to keep it from...

Makana Beach

Beach

👍👍 What a cool beach! On one side there were people surfing some nice waves and we were like right there in the water next to it not getting any of those waves hitting us. It's like the waves stick to one side. It was really cool. Got the occasional nice wave on our side but nothing like what they were...

Kahala Hilton Beach

Beach

👍👍 This is my favorite beach on Oahu! It is a hotel driven area however the beach is public access there is a beautiful little bar should you want a beverage but not want to haul all your stuff out to the beach. The water is always calm calm and the water levels don’t reach your clavicle until a good 1...

Kaaawa Beach

Beach

👍👍 Kaawa Beach is one of my favorite beaches in North Shore, Ohau, Hawaii. This beach is absolutely beautiful. If you're looking for Emerald-like color water and soft sand (barely see broken shells) beach, Kaaawa Beach is the one you are looking for! Calm water and nice sunlight let you have a nap and...

Pokai Bay Beach

Beach

👍👍 Beautiful beach. I call this the “west side Waikiki.” Lots of locals. Best place to throw a birthday party. There’s a playground for children. There’s showers and lots of places to barbecue. The bathrooms aren’t too clean but there are a lot of people sharing it so that can be expected. Great food p...

Kapalaoa Beach

Beach

👍👍 Home beach of our resident Hawaiian Monk Seals that come up on the beach to sun and rest between feeding adventures. For all visitors, please obey the signs posted in the area to stay a safe distance from them, usually there is a local guide onsite when the seals are there to educate and guard our r...

Ke Iki Beach

Beach

👍👍 Let me first start off by saying that Oahu Island is very beautiful. The hospitality there from the locals is just amazing. In one incident I was walking through the alley way of some homes after visiting Ke iki Beach, and a homeowner offered me an avocado from his tree. Of course I accepted. But th...
