Oneula Beach Park

Warning: Be extra cautious when stepping on the sand. Apparently a guy in the tent next to us warned that his daughter almost stepped on a filet knife sticking straight out of the sand and he found metal sparklers sticking up as well....so much firework rubbish everywhere. Swear our party picked up more than a 100 of those long pink sparklers all over the sand. This beach is also known as Hau Bush. I wouldn't have known about it had I not been invited. It's a beautiful beach to pull up and go surfing. An Ewa local told me they cleared out all but one of the homeless peeps. As long as you float in the beginning, you should be fine. But stepping on those rocks in the shallow, ouch! Other than that, if you wanna tan, *cough*, get burnt, this is the spot lol.

Oneula Beach Park in Ewa Beach is a rare gem to find. It it away from the hustle and bustle of our island and just a nice beach to relax enjoy the sunset or the sounds of waves crashing. This is definitely a locals beach. It's nothing fancy in fact there is not even a bathroom anymore. But there is lots of parking and trash bins to save the environment. The sand is clean and the waves are forever. Locals love to fish and surf at this location and the sights are amazing. It does look like our city officials are planning something.....hopefully great here and I hope it doesn't interrupt the peacefulness of this special beach.

Condom package in sand. I don't even want to think about where the used condom was disposed of. Utterly disgusting!As for the beach it's pretty rocky. The surf was pretty rough today. Not sure if that is typical. Looks like the locals use it mostly for fishing, surfing, sunbathing, hanging out, and picnics or events.I don't recommend it for inexperienced swimmers or newbies learning to boogie board or surf. Also, there's a fair amount of trash around the area of the beach. Not as much on the beach itself.Some homeless camps. Not as many as were on Ewa Beach. Sending up prayers for them.

Looks like the homeless moving back in. Main parking lot never got paved. City & County hyped all the improvements they were going to do. Waste money again.....

A locals spot for surf, fishing and chill'n in the Ewa Beach Area. One'ula is the official name. Those from the 76 South call this place Hau Bush.Da Hits: 1. Clean....well cleaner than it was 20 years ago. 2. You can enjoy the beach during the day and be safe. 3. Fishing- can! Pull up your truck. Just don't cast where the surfers are. 4. The view- Diamond Head and Waikiki. Beautiful skies around sunset. 5. Plenty of parking. 6. Not a crowded place to surf. Every time I go just a handful of surfers in the water. 7. Small south shore facing waves. Good for beginners. Real similar to next door White Plains beach. Near misses: 1. Not much shade. 2. Restroom facilities subpar. 3. People light up. Can smell it in the air. More than likely Medicinal type... wink wink. 4. Not the safest beach. The only time I seen cops here was during the last Hurricane. Watch some scraps every once in a while.Not a must see beach. I grew up swimming here so that's why I come here once in a while.

This beach is unquestionably popular among the locals. It is nothing special, and in fact, there is not even a bathroom there any longer. However, there is a large amount of parking available, as well as trash cans, in order to preserve the environment. The beach is spotless, and the surf seems to go on forever. At this spot, the locals go fishing and surfing all the time, and the scenery is breathtaking.

Not impressed with this beach at all. Located on the outskirts of new developments. Based on the location had high hopes for this beach. This area was very run down, littered with run down vehicles, tents and garbage. Not the "beach" you picture in Hawaii. Skip this if you're looking for a nice sunset.

Great place to hang out and enjoy family time. I have zero complaints about the place. I would suggest maintaining the homeless in the area but overall a great beach.

I'm not a local and I also agree with M.Ms review. I'm not sure if all the people here are homeless but it at least appears that they park and band together. There are a lot of vagrant homeless cats as well. My sister noticed the smell of urine right away, but I guess I didn't hone in on it as much since I'm used to the smell from living in multiple metro cities. We were only here briefly because we were trying to catch the sunset. We were right in front of our car so it wasn't really a chance for anyone to molest our car. It was a short walk over a short hill to the beach. The portion of the beach we were on was not combed or anything so you get to navigate around the rocks and logs and trash on the beach to the water. We also did not swim here. Obviously the waves were a bit hardcore for swimming. But there were plenty of people fishing and surfing though. There is also a baseball field nearby if you want to hit some balls. As mentioned there are no "services" so hold your #1's and #2 unless you wanna attempt the "Honey Bucket" where the door barely locks or do it in the bushes. I wouldn't suggest this beach for laying out or tanning or snorkeling or walking a dog for fear of possible infection or injury. But again...I'm not a local. Enter at your own risk.

If you're looking for a fishing spot, this is the most convenient. You can drive right up to the spot of your choice and don't have to drag your belongings anywhere. It never closes and there are no gates, so night fishing is an option. The fish are out there, along with turtles, eels, balloon fish, and sharks. Last weekendsomeone brought in a 9 foot hammerhead shark. Yikes!!! If you're looking for swimming, there's a lot of reef and coral. A lot of surfers frequent this spot though. Homeless encounters are likely especially near the trees where they set up their tents. Watch out for the glass. Drinking is common and some just throw their bottles. Trash is also common. The beach isn't maintained and it's up to users to pick up after themselves. And....no bathrooms. The aroma of marijuana is frequently present when teenagers are near. With limited enforcement, it happens. It's potentially a nice place, but it isn't taken care of by the people who go there.
