Keawaula Beach / Yokohama Bay


Keawaula Beach is also referred to as Yokohama Bay Beach because it is the beach that is on Yokohama Bay in Oahu, Hawaii. The beach is located on Farrington Highway. It is the last possible destination one can reach on that highway. It is a sandy beach with no resorts surrounding it, but has the backdrop of the mountains on Oahu. The beach is considered a surfing beach along with a choice sunbathing location. It is definitely away from the crowds, thus many tourists tend to head there if they have a rental car in order to have plenty of enjoyment on the beach without the crowds one normally sees closer to the resorts.

A short way before Keawaula Beach is Kaena Point State Recreation Area. This area is undeveloped and has been protected by the state to keep it as a natural area. Vehicles are not permitted on this area. Hiking and bikes are allowed, through one must remain on the paths. Most seabirds use it as a haven. It is possible to trek by foot from Keawaula Beach to the recreation area, but it is a rugged path thus difficult for most.
