Kaiaka Bay Beach Park

I couldn't search for Pohaku Lana'i in Yelp, so I was finally able to find a place where the balance lock existed.Balance Rock is a historical landmark located at Pohaku Lana'i in Haleiwa, HI.This ancient Hawaiian site for God worship was recently visited by world-famous Japanese baseball great Shohei Ohtani who came to see it because it is known for its "big energy".On a recent visit, it was easy to feel the aura of peace surrounding the unusual natural rock configuration that appears to balance one large rock on top of another.Pohaku Lana'i offers plenty of parking for easy access to the grassy park area where the Balance Rock is located. Close to the ocean, the park is a comfortable place for people to gather, enjoy the beach, and restroom facilities are available as well.Yelp でポハクラナイが検索できなかったので、バランスロックが存在する場所を探してようやく此処に辿り着く事が出来た。大谷翔平効果で一躍有名になったバランスロックは特に日本人の間でブームなのかも知れない。この古代ハワイの神崇拝サイトは、その「大きなエネルギー」で知られており、世界的に有名な日本人の偉大なベースボールプレーヤー大谷翔平が訪れた事で一躍注目を浴びる事となったのです。最近私達が訪問した時も、大きな岩を別の岩の上に、まるで人工的にバランス良く設置したように見える珍しい岩の周りには、とても安定した平和のオーラを容易に感じ取る事が出来ました。ポハク・ラナイには、バランス・ロックがある芝生の公園エリアに簡単にアクセスできる十分な駐車場があります。海に近い公園は、人々が集まり、ビーチを楽しむのに快適な場所であり、トイレ施設も利用出来るので是非ハワイ訪問の際には此処に来て大きなエネルギーを感じ取ってください！

Being raised on the North Shore of Oahu I would say Kaiaka Bay is the North Shore's version of Magic Island.When I worked in town (Honolulu) I would run Magic Island on my lunch breaks.Here at Kaiaka Bay - There aren't any paved walking paths but it's still fun to run around the the perimeter of park (dirt) or the paved road.There is plenty of parking.There are clean bathrooms and showers.There are BBQ areas and campground.There are several picnic tables, mostly shaded.I see people surfing and fishing here but have honestly never swam. I have spotted several turtles here. The park is located Haleiwa on Haleiwa Beach road, right next to Haleiwa Elementary School and is a great place to picnic at.

I remember the first time I learned how to surf, it was here in the summertime years back. The waves can be brutal in the winter, the reefs are rough and beware of the sea urchins as well. I wouldn't recommend beginners to surf here or swimming either, however, It's a beautiful place to sit and chill and relax, and it's away from the bustling Haleiwa town. A perfect place to sit and have a picnic or just meditate. Also you can camp and fish as well. On the other side of this beach, you can see Mount Ka'ala and Ka'ena point and other beautiful things...Enjoy the outdoors and if you do decide to have a picnic or smoke, please don't litter. There are trash cans throughout the park. Malama aina. As locals say, Lucky we live Hawaii...

My friend wanted to hunt for driftwood so I figured I'd come along for the ride, as my friend told me that this beach park - Kaiaka Bay Beach Park had a secret spot for harvesting driftwood.1st of all, I had to ask my friend to confirm it was not illegal to harvest some driftwood, Lol! The last thing I need is to get a fine for taking driftwood, and getting arrested! Lol!Where is Kaiaka Bay Beach Park?Well, best way to describe it is..................it's about a 1/2 mile down the road from Haleiwa Beach Park. Kaiaka Bay Beach park appears to be less busy then the Haleiwa Beach park, and the the day I came here I saw a few folks jogging/walking along the park, as well as seeing people fishing, surfers coming up from the beach from a morning surf session, and folks bringing their doggies here to run the path trails of the park.I basically came here to help my friend look for some driftwood, as she is a craft hobbyist.We were able to find a special spot on this beach where it was pretty secluded, but the special spot was LOADED with all types of driftwood! Besides finding drift wood, I was also able to capture some wonderful morning pics! (Check 'em out gang!)The only thing I found bad about this place was when I was helping my friend rummage for some driftwood, I did find trash here & there, and even found a hypodermic needle in the sand. Be careful gang when walking on the sand & looking for driftwood.............don't go barefoot. To to be safe...........please wear shoes (like I did today!).Overall, still a nice looking beach park.............not too busy here, as I suspect more locals probably come here over the tourist.Looking for a nice quite beach to hang out.............give Kaiaka Bay Beach Park a try!

After snatching a dish from the Waialua Lunch Wagon, we were looking for a place to chill. Saw this spot on Yelp and it was pretty close by so we decided to give this spot a go.Feels:It's Hawaii so pretty much everything is beautiful. It isn't the most touristy spots so it's also not superficial pretty. A nice simple beach with a good view of the mountains and the ocean. They have a bathroom and shower in the vicinity as well. There are a lot of surfers, tables and benches but it seems like people chill there to tailgate and barbecue too.Parking:I came here twice and the parking wasn't too bad nor were there a lot of people.Overall4 Stars. An excellent spot to enjoy the simple pleasures. Bring your family, friends, or just yourself. Whether you're eating a meal, playing in the water, or doing some reflecting, this is a pretty good spot.TL;DR Tips:* A hidden gem if you're just looking for a simple spot to relax.

A very nice and good North Shore beach park just outside of Hale'iwa Town to have a picnic, relax at the beach, and even enjoy a sunset. Generally, plenty of parking along the loop road. Lots of big grass areas to run and walk around.

On a recent North Shore excursion with friends from out of town, they wanted to see the big waves and maybe take a dip. A wandering spirit kicked in, and I thought we should check out some new parks and beaches along the way.One of our favorites was Kaiaka Bay Beach Park. Located close to Hale'iwa town, it's easy to get to and with considerably more parking and less people than Ali'i Beach just down the road. Park access is a big loop of a road, with sprawling fields offering plenty of running room for our four-footed companions, as well as shade trees sprinkled around. They have somewhat clean restrooms, foot washing stations and amazing views of the Waianae Mountains, and up the North Shore.The beach is beautiful, but has lots of coral and rocks. The sand is clean. At the time of the year of this writing, the waves are too intense to swim, so the beaches were closed. If you're tired of too many people closer to town, check this park out!

Beautiful spot to have a quick photo shoot or even a quick picnic. Big grass areas for kids to run around and picnic tables along the beach side. Bathroom available and lots of parking along with road. Saw lots of people taking a dip in with their boards. Don't believe it's a place to actually swim though.

This could be decent, depends on your outdoor needs.Large grassy area without many trees. Perfect for flying kites, having a picnic, playing a team game.- 4 starsSand is rough or it is rocky on the beach. Also quite a few homeless "camping" around. That explains all the police around. - 1 starOverall vibe is kind of sketchy. It's a no from me.

This is the spot if you want to get your walk/jog on.Plenty of parking and beautiful views.
