Waimanalo Beach

Waimanalo

Very beautiful beach in Hawaii, the island of Oahu🌴
This is a very hard place to find if you do not know where to turn off the hike. To find this you'll need to hike Makapu'u Lighthouse, but will need to take a turn off the trail and down a cliff. This could be dangerous, so make sure that you go with someone experienced and to check the tide. If the tide is high, DO NOT GO because the waves will break into the tide pools and possibly sweep you in the ocean. The view is beautiful and you see many fish swimming in the tide pools.
Couldn’t even see the stars 😔 #Golden
In the distance the larger island is Manana Island. In the foreground a smaller island that appears to snuggle the larger. It reminds me of the song by James Ford Murphy, Kuana Torres Kahele, and Napua Greg-Nakasone “Lava”. The graphics that go with that song were modeled after Iz and his wife. So beautiful!
If you come to Oahu, you have to visit this beautiful beach.

Have you ever seen a more perfect beach than Bellows Beach 🏖? Literally, I was speechless!!😶White sand powder, gorgeous clear teal beach and warm water.💦 This Beach on my picture is located inside the military base. However, there is an area outside of the base that’s dedicated for public use. But it is not nearly as stunning as this one. Besides the Lanikai Beach, this one is another of my favorite place to swim.
