Kailua Beach Park - Oa'hu, Hawaii

Kailua Beach Park - Oa'hu, Hawaii
This perfect white sand beach is on the Windward Coast of the Island of Oa'hu.  A 30 minute drive from downtown Honolulu, Kailua Beach is worth the trip.  Enjoy the drive through the island as you leave the city behind and curve through the mountains of the interior.  A popular spot for kayaking and swimming, the Kailua Beach Park can get crowded on the weekends, but never as crowded as the tourist populated Waikiki beaches.  If you'd like to mix a workout into your relaxing day at the beach, take a swim to Bird Sanctuary Island.  The water is never deeper than 12 feet and the swim will take about 20 minutes (each way) for a decent swimmer.  This is a can't miss for anyone visiting the island.
