Duke Kahanamoku Lagoon — Attraction in Honolulu

As you are walking towards the ocean, the view of the lagoon with the ocean in the background is beautiful. Once you are at the beach, you will notice the sand is really hard and packed down. There are about 10-15 spots for families to set up in the grassy area, and if you are lucky, you will get a spot with some shade. We didn't stay too long since we did not see an opening to the ocean or a filtration system. There weren't any washrooms around, so we spent some time walking around to find one.

This is a great spot to bring your family if you're staying close by. There are no waves since it's a lagoon, making it great for little ones. There are some smaller fish in the water, but they leave you alone. There's plenty of beach to stretch out and accommodate lots of people. You can rent a paddle board, kayak or water tricycle if you want. We like to get there early, like 8am and get a spot in the shade by the HHV. We had shade for about 3 hours...

Place is okay. I do appreciate that folks work hard to keep it clean. It’s a really good place to take kids to swim, especially the inexperienced ones. The sand is not that good, you can find better sand on beaches throughout Oahu. Can get crowded, especially on Fridays for the fireworks. All things considered, this is a decent place to go and enjoy some time...
