Go early, parking fills up fast. Snorkeling for beginners made easy. The reef & coral are amazing to see. Lots of fish and aquatic animals to witness in their natural habitat. Don't forget your underwater camera like me. There is a brief mandatory presentation regarding the preservation of the beach/reef before you gain access. Restrooms & concessions are available at the top of the cliff.

Stopped at the Marina part of Maunalua Bay Beach Park because there was parking. Next to the beach the parking was all full. The bay looks very nice, really pretty

You can get here on the bus , number 23 Hawaii Kai from Waikiki
If you drive it is about 10 miles and has plenty of parking
The bay is beautiful with clear blue reflection
This is a popular spot for motorized craft such as seadoos
It is right across the highway from the HawaiiKai town centre mall
You can pick up food for your picnic at Costco or one of the restaurants located in the mall
As to earlier comments of not safe , you should not be taking valuables to any beach park

I live pretty close to Maunalua Bay Beach Park and I love to swing by there to watch the sun set. Take a cooler with some snacks / drinks and you will have a lovely and totally relaxing evening. Parking is free and plentiful in the evening. Don't miss it.

Really wanted to go to this beach, but as we got out of the car and opened our trunk with valuables in it a police officer was patrolling and said we should not even stay because of the car break ins. If you have a rental car you are a prime target. He said they smash the windows of rental cars and pop the trunk and take everything. He stated a couple was there the day before and everything was stolen--passports, credit cards etc- they were stranded on the island. So disappointed that there are so many homeless and the rate of crime seems high. I really appreciated the officer stopping and telling us otherwise our trip probably would have been ruined.

This place is not for sunbathing and swimming. - water is stagnant - beach is not clean - homeless people in the parking lot and food wrappers on the ground. A couple of families with dogs playing on the beach.

Narrow park with beach and ocean views. Not many people there and several people in water using water scouters. Noisy as it is beside the main highway to coastal beaches on the southeast of Oahu. Nice view, may not be great for longer stops.

Visited this park as part of a city tour of the Honolulu area. We even walked down a little further to dip our feet in the water of the Maunalua Bay. Peaceful and tranquil. Not a lot of people were there when my family visited, so it was like we had the place all to ourselves.
