Hau‘ula Beach Park

Do you crave a serene camping experience on Oahu’s windward coast, where the rhythmic crash of waves meets the green slopes of the Ko‘olau Range? Hau‘ula Beach Park Campground offers a tranquil coastal retreat with 15 campsites, set just steps from the ocean. This nine-acre park combines the soothing sounds of the sea with a laid-back, local atmosphere ideal for camping under the stars.

The campground is equipped with essential amenities, including picnic tables, outdoor barbecue grills, drinking water, and restrooms, ensuring both convenience and comfort. While the beach itself has a narrow shoreline and shallow nearshore reefs—making swimming less ideal—it offers opportunities for snorkeling on calm days and even beginner surfing at its northern end. Located close to the Kamehameha Highway, the campground provides easy access to nearby attractions like the Hau‘ula Loop Trail (a quick four-minute drive) and Kokololio Beach Park, where sandy shores and seasonal swimming await. The remains of the historic Lanakila Church are also visible nearby, adding cultural depth to your visit.

Hau‘ula Beach Park is a prime destination for relaxed weekend getaways or family camping trips, offering an authentic connection to Oahu's natural beauty and local ambiance. Positioned just 30 miles from Honolulu, it’s an accessible escape to a quieter, more peaceful side of the island.
