Laenani Neighborhood Park — Attraction in Oʻahu

Laenani Park is a small neighborhood park about the size of a football field in the residential community of Kahaluu on the eastern side of O'ahu and has a perfect view for sunrises. So the three days that my wife and I were staying at Paradise Bay Resort right up the road, we got up early to photograph the sunrises. After having a conversation with one of the local residents and seeing he was flying a drone near Kualoa Point at "Mokoli'i" Island or "Chinamanscap" which is over three and a half miles away along the coast. (You can see it on the left side in some of the pictures I shot). He told us about some of the other sites in the area and showed us some of the images he just shot (I should have brought my drone)!

It is a cute lil beach park, perfect for family get togethers, especially if you have children, lil babies on up to teens. It's off the main road, clean, peaceful, safe; everything you are looking for. Courts, grassy area, beach, pavilion n bathrooms all right there, close vicinity to each other and parking.

DOGS ALLOWED BELOW THE WALL ONLY!! NOT ALLOWED in the park, on the grass area. I’m always trying to find a mellow beach nearby the hale, where my senior pup can take a quick dip.

If you bring your beloved fur baby here, PLEASE CLEAN UP AFTER...
