On Kalakaua Avenue. Came here after eating breakfast at Lulu's. Parked at Honolulu Zoo across the street. Approximately a two minute walk. Paid a $1/hour. Sat on park bench, above water, next to some homeless guys under the shelter cove and read my Kindle. Others eventually showed up and sat near but everyone was moderately quiet and peaceful. I could... More

We spent an afternoon here after a whirlwind couple of days exploring Oahu. This is a nice beach, which as a result of the breakwater in front of it, has some very gentle waves.

The previous reviewer was mistaken about Kuhio Beach being close to Sunset Beach. The distance is about 30 miles or so. Perhaps the Reviewer from TEXAS was recalling the Sunsets (real Sun) seen from Kuhio which are Very Nice. I find Kuhio very nice. I especially like seeing the chess games and it is so warm the water. As a... More

I just returned from a trip to Oahu March 16, 2004. Kuhio beach is beautiful but it is in the Waikiki Area on Kalakaua and there is many tourist there. It is located next to Sunset Beach where on certain Saturdays there is food booths, art shows and a movie at 7:00. I preferred the beach near Sea Life Park... More
