Pokai Bay Beach

Surf Oahu's Western Coast

Nestled between the Wai'anae small boat harbor and Kane'ilio Point, Pokai Bay Beach stands as a cherished gem on Oʻahu's serene leeward coast. A sought-after destination for locals and an enticing day trip for Ko'olina visitors seeking an authentic Hawaiian experience. The crescent-shaped rock jetty serves as a natural barrier, ensuring the tranquil 15-acre beach park remains sheltered from high surf, creating an ideal haven for families with young swimmers, snorkeling enthusiasts, and those looking for a peaceful lap swim.

Pokai Bay Beach boasts calm waters and is especially well-suited for novice surfers, offering a gentle surf around the expansive reef at the bay's center. Originally known as Malaea, translating to "calm" or "serene," this beach is rich in history and continues to be a beloved coastal retreat on Oʻahu's west side.
