This is by far my favorite spot for taking pictures and having a picnic at the beach! The beach itself is long and narrow, with calm, crystal blue water that's perfect for swimming, but not so great for snorkeling since there isn't much to see. The view of the beach is absolutely stunning, with the impressive Ko'olau mountain serving as a picturesque backdrop that looks like something straight out of a screensaver. However, parking can be a bit of a challenge since there are very limited spots available in the roadside parking lot, and parallel parking is the only option. Thankfully, there are showers and bathrooms available for public use. 🌺🤙🏼

The water is stunningly clear and the scenery is breathtaking. Although there are a few jagged rocks in the water, the majority of the beach is covered in soft sand. However, parking and available space on the beach are somewhat restricted.

On a Monday afternoon, I visited this beach and found it to be relatively uncrowded with only a few people around. Additionally, the beach boasts of golden sand, making it a beautiful sight to behold.
