A RECENT MONK SEAL SIGHTING TRIGGERED AN UNEXPECTED, BEACH ALERT. From a landing, and parking lots, at the base of the Diamond Head crater, a steep, safe paved walkway with a firm railing, rapidly descends to the beach below. The views on this downward pathway are breathtaking. Surfers prefer this south-facing surf during the summer months for the higher, stronger wave-action than those found on the North Shore. This condition dramatically changes during the winter season as the fabled high, powerful surf annually visits the North Shore. There is a well-known saying among seasoned surfers. "Never turn your back on the open sea." You do so at your own peril." My newest post takes you at early dawn down to the beach. Join the surfers at the "crack-of-dawn" on their way down, kick off their sandals, and push on out to welcome the open sea and white-crested waves.

Surfers and swimmers that want a break from the crowds around Waikiki will love this spot. Nice waves, clear waters, with less people. The carport is small so get there early if you can. From the carpark, there is an excellent lookout. You can see miles of pristine waters. There are no amenities on the beach. But that means less beach goers and more serenity. Feeling energetic? The Diamond Head trail in nearby. Walk up, get some pics, then head down to the beach to cool off.

A entry level hiking place with nicely Paved road with good signs. The view is amazing on top and people are in nice manner way to take pictures in line. need to bring a lot water as there is no place to buy water on the way. There are some shade and a long tunnel. it takes us 1.5 hr in total. highly recommended to make reservations in advance, we only made it for inperson and took uber to there, as the one with parking option went out too fast

This beach is one of my favorite beaches that I’ve been to so far the water was really clear really warm but the thing above me that is a lot of rocks so definitely recommend water shoes and the staircase wasn’t even that long and there was a bunch of surfers and a bunch of bombpeople surfing on different boards. It was really cool to see him do that thing but other than that it was a really cool beach to go to and the view was really cool.

I headed to Diamond Head Beach Park for some surfing since it was recommended as a great spot for learners like me. Although I didn't catch many waves, getting out there and giving it a shot was easy. The beach is not crowded, probably because it's a bit of a walk to reach, but street parking is available. Just a heads up, I didn't come across any restrooms during my visit. Overall, a cool place for surfing practice

Absolutely beautiful view! It’s a narrow hike, so if you’re in good shape get there early and try and head the line. It’s hard to get around people. I also use the the term hike loosely. You could do this in sneakers some people had on sandals but I wouldn’t recommend it. Didn’t realize there is a short tunnel (I’m claustrophobic) but it wasn’t bad. I’m glad we went for sunrise. Definitely worth doing
