Laniakea Beach, Beach on North Shore, Honolulu County, United States.

Laniakea Beach is a stretch of sand and flat rock on Oahu's North Shore, in the Honolulu County district of Haleiwa, beside Kamehameha Highway at coordinates 21.61721, -158.08734. The shore is known for green sea turtles that come onto the sand, and the climate is dry, with August highs averaging 24 °C and January lows around 19 °C.

Laniakea Beach lies on Oahu's North Shore in Honolulu County, Hawaii, beside Kamehameha Highway. The source documents record only its location and its dry climate, with temperatures averaging about 21 °C and August the warmest month at around 24 °C; they give no founding date, no surfing history and no competitions.

Honu, Hawaiian green sea turtles, haul out to rest on the sand here, and the beach is one of the best-known places on Oahu to see them. Volunteers rope off the animals and answer questions, and visitors are asked to keep their distance and give turtles room to return to the water.

Parking is available on the other side of Kamehameha Highway, but crossing the road requires caution due to busy traffic during peak times. It is wise to stay alert and allow extra time for walking from your parking spot to the beach.

The beach sits at the mouth of Laniakea Stream, and its name means "open skies" or "immense heaven" in Hawaiian. The green sea turtles, called honu, haul out on the sand to bask, and volunteers rope off their resting areas so people keep a distance. Look for the basking turtles near the stream mouth.
