The Kaiwi Coastline Hike is more like a nice walk on the beach but the rugged nature of the place feels like a hike.

This is a wonderful free thing to do on Oahu. It's easy for the whole family and there's an incredibly varied landscape to explore.

Roundtrip Distance: .7mi. Difficulty: Easy. Great for all ages.

Characteristics: Sandy beach, lots of tidepools, inland streams and tiny bays. Lots to explore. Something for everyone.

  • Current Beach Information for Sandy Beach Park, South Shore (Oahu) 5/19/2012
    Beach Condition: Danger — Currents and surge on beach are quite strong and shore break can cause injury. Avoid exposed beaches and rocky shoreline. Remain beyond the reach of the waves as indicated by wet sand or rocks. Be aware of the variable nature of wave groups and lulls.

    Offshore Condition: Moderate — Normal caution advised. Approach the ocean with caution. Be alert for choppy seas, currents, and breaking waves. Weak swimmers should not venture offshore as the seafloor drops off quickly and tidal currents and winds are strong on many island shores. Users of kayaks and other unpowered craft must be aware of strong wind and current conditions that can carry you offshore, and are capable of changing unexpectedly.

    Surf Report: SURF ALONG SOUTH FACING SHORES WILL BE 1 TO 3 FEET THROUGH SUNDAY
    Surf Report Timestamp: 5/19/2012 9:00:00 AM HST
    Current Wind: from the Northeast at 16.1 gusting to 23.0 MPH (14 gusting to 20 KT)

Hiking Gear Guide

Experienced hikers know what to bring, and here’s a guide for the rest of us:

• Water (lots!)

• Hat, large enough to give you plenty of shade. Personally I like the large “Chinese” hats.

• Good hiking shoes. Either that or go barefoot, like I do!

• Light lunch for your reward at the end of the trail.

• Nuts and energy snacks for along the way of particularly long hikes.

• Camera

• Sunscreen

• Binoculars

• Depending on conditions, leave a change of shoes and clothes in the car.

• GPS unit.

• Walkie-talkies for the group.

• Wireless phone
