Hale'iwa Beach Park

main view of beach

Haleiwa Beach Park has one of the few light brown sand beaches on the island, unlike most Oahu beaches which consist of white sand formed from coral and seashells. The beach also offers about 250ft in length by 100ft width of warm friendly sand that is easy on the eyes and is situated so that it gets incredible views of both the sunrise and sunset.

Haleiwa Beach Park provides a plethora of possibilities and is walking distance from shopping, eating and sightseeing in historic Haleiwa Town.


Toward the eastern end of the beach is a seawall that is a one-of-a-kind on the north shore. With a large enough grassy field to host festivals and carnivals, athletic activities such as frisbee and soccer are not a problem.

Two full length basketball courts and two volleyball courts await those with a more competitive nature, but bewarned that the humidity and heat might be your biggest obstacle.

There is also a childrens playground, bathrooms, plenty of shaded areas, and jetskiing rentals nearby, it is no wonder why it is a favorable location for family picnic and beach activities. It is definitely a worthy day-in-the-country destination. You can get there by tour bus about 1.5 hours ride from Waikiki.
