Kaiona Beach Park

Oahu's Attractive Sea


Nestled at the foot of the majestic Ko'olau Mountains on Oahu's windward coast, Kaiona Beach Park is a charming 4-acre coastal haven that promises a tranquil escape. Ideal for families and novice swimmers, this beach boasts calm waters, making it a perfect spot for a relaxing day by the sea. The prime swimming area lies in front of the seawall, offering a safe and gentle experience. Discover the ancient Hawaiian fishpond, Pahonu Pond, located to the right of the grassy expanse during low tide, showcasing visible walls with a history rooted in legend. Translating to "turtle fence" in Hawaiian, Pahonu Pond is said to have been strategically designed to ensure a constant supply of live turtles for a chief's culinary delight.

The turquoise-hued waters at Kaiona, especially on sunny days, create a picturesque setting reminiscent of a pristine pool. Aptly named "Kaiona," meaning "attractive sea" in Hawaiian, this beach captivates with its crystal-clear allure. Additionally, Kaiona Beach has served as a community boat anchorage for years, and in 1999, a community-built boat ramp was added at the park's southern end, catering to small boats and enhancing the park's maritime appeal. Immerse yourself in the beauty and serenity of Kaiona Beach, where nature's wonders and cultural history converge in a coastal sanctuary.
