Aloha
Today I'd like to introduce you to Makapu'u beach park or as the locals calls it Baby Mak; because of it's small size. This beach is located on the south side of Oahu island. It's exact location is 41-19 Kalanianaole highway in Waimanalo. From the first photo you call somewhat see the highway right above this beach, along the mountain. This beach is kids friendly and is a great body-boarding spot because of its' shallow, strong currents. It's right below Makapu'u Lighthouse hike and from these photos you can definitely see the lighthouse from here. This beach park has a nice clean bathroom and paved parking spots for your convenience. Please enjoy the views...
Red flags as warning of very strong currents. And a lifeguard post with lifeguards on duty daily.
Here's is the bathroom. And the steps leading up and down the bathroom looks pretty cool, IMHO...
Here are a couple of views to the left side of Makapu'u beach park...
And a map for your convenience...
So the next time to happen to visit Honolulu, Hawaii and decided to venture out to Makapu'u lighthouse hike, do drive downward for less than a quarter of a mile to check out this small but beautiful beach. Of course, there are many other beaches along Kalanianaaole highway for your enjoyment.
Until we meet again, have a wonderful day.
Aloha!
