Waiahole Beach Park is a place of solitary and peace on the north-east shore of O'ahu. Although there are no lavatories and lifeguards in sight, the park is merely for admiring the vistas of the North Shore. The locale is calm and there's no dedicated parking but street only. The murkiness of the waters, dark sands and reefs makes it difficult to nearly impossible for swimming and snorkeling. Watching my feet sink into the nearly black sand took me by surprise. The beach area provides a large grassy area for picnics in the open sun surrounded by lightly hovering trees. At a glance and on many great days of perfect sunny weather, the contrasts from the Ko'olau's are visible through the weightless pendulous clouds. Look further into the open horizon to see Chinamans Hat. I love the chirps of the countless exotic birds that congregate at the lonely mangrove tree and bring life to its branches and drooping roots. The shallowness of the water and the abundance of fish attract fishermen from all over the island. The region makes a great location for weddings photos and avid shutterbugs. The beach park was previously used for television and movie films such as LOST, and 50 First Dates for its stunning scenery.Its surrounding areas are residential homes that line along Kamehameha Hwy. Besides the passing of cars driving past, continuous sounds of rippling waves lashing on shore and the trees are swaying to and fro. The park is a great place for reading and allowing time to pass, be lost, and disconnect from reality. I recommend bringing your own beach chairs, and towels for wiping mud off your feet. The park can be mushy especially after the rain. To keep the beauty and livelihood of the park, please be respectful to the land and pick up your trash. There are hardly any trash cans so bring a garbage bag of your own and not leave them on the beach.
