Hawaiian Electric Beach Park

The long white sand beach stretches along Oahu's southwest coast, featuring crystal waters and coral reefs that extend 200 yards from the shoreline.

The Hawaiian Electric Company constructed a power plant near the beach in the mid-20th century, introducing warm water outflows that transformed the marine ecosystem.

Local fishermen and marine enthusiasts gather at this location to observe and study the diverse marine life, including green sea turtles and spinner dolphins.

The beach operates from 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM daily, offering facilities such as restrooms, showers, and parking areas for visitors throughout the day.

Two large cooling pipes from the power plant release warm water into the ocean, creating an artificial reef environment that attracts numerous fish species.
