The right side jumping ledge at Halona Beach Cove, Oahu, Hawaii

Depending on who else is there, you might see folks jumping off a ledge on the right side lava shelf.

Free thing to do on Oahu: Jump off the ledge

Watch them carefully for clues on how to do it right. The biggest issue is timing: wait for a wave to come, creating maximum depth, and jump in.  Have fun but of course exercise caution.

There's a few places you can jump off. Make a note of the general depth and roughness of the water you're going to jump into before you do. I would suggest you swim out from the shore to the place you plan on jumping just so you know what it feels like to swim back.

Then jump in and have fun!  I wouldn't suggest you dive because depending on your timing, the depth can vary by 2-3 feet or more.

• Collapsable beach chairs

• Collapsable tent

• Large mat to place on sand, enough for 4-6 people to sit and eat.

• Juice drinks (try Hawaiian Sun brand).

• Chips, nuts, trail mixes.

• Candy bars/nut bars.

• Big hats to shade the sun.
