Million dollar view of Honolulu and Mount Leahi (Diamond Head). Almost daily displays of rainbows at sunset, killer direct sunrise views too. Semi-private beach, must have current drivers license car registration to get through security Kapilina beach homes to get public beach access. Can be a lot of debris like sticks, thorns, coral washed up after south swell and from the mouth of Pearl Harbor. Water shoes are necessary if you have tender toes. We have a resident Hammerhead shark that is occasionally sighted in the Cove 2 and 1 area. If you smell fishy smell just get out of the water. The surf can get bigger in the summertime and we actually have a decent mostly uncrowded wave if you're not scared of encountering the resident carnivore.

I used to live here so it was a sweet opportunity to be able to get into the housing area. It is gated and requires id to get in. The housing is now public and available for rent. The beach is as I remembered it, but they've since added lounge chairs and raised huts that you can sit in. It was really a beautiful view of Diamond Head from the shoreline. You could also see Tripler Hospital.

Recommend to visit Private territory You need driver license and insurance card for car And You will get pass for all day

'58,'59,'60,'61,my father, CDR,was stationed at Ford Island. Our house was right on the beach(Iroquois ave.) Every morning my bro.& I would run over a little sand dune out the back door & swim in the Pacific Ocean before school.The Royal Hawaiian hotel was the biggest building on Waikiki Beach.

Beach without so many people, lots of stones and broken shells when walking, recommendation to bring beach shoes

Beautiful sheltered beach with views of the airport. Hardly anyone was there, our family enjoyed the beach with just one other family. It truly was paradise! FYI, you can only access this beach with someone who lives in the gated community.

Now called kapilina. This is a beautiful place to live beautiful beach clean bathrooms nice beach umbrellas and chairs. The awnings the grills concession stand beautiful place.

It’s a straight coastline with crystal turquoise water and golden sand. The beach is suitable for different categories of people, lonely travelers, relaxation getaway lovers, and others. It’s not crowded at all.

typical oahu, half the island and all the good places are for military only wat a scam

A nice and secluded beach on old Navy housing property. The beach is public but the road into the housing complex is gated. If you are not a resident, you get pulled to the side and have to fill out paperwork. Not a big deal, but a small pain. Of note, the structures on the beach are strictly for residents only. Non-residents, use at your own risk. Also, the beach is right in final approach for Inouye Int'l Airport, so you get great views of areiving airplanes.

Really clean and beautiful beach We created an artificial lagoon so you can swim without worrying about waves. There are parasols and beach beds. However, since it is in a community with restricted access, when entering You must present your ID, driver's license, vehicle insurance card (rental contract), etc.

Beautiful

(Translated by Google) Nice and super relaxing (Original) Bonito y súper relajante

Private, great amenities, choppy seas.

Amazing customer service!!!! Thank you!!!

Lovely, but bashing Blake Shelton by the bs nd not cool, nothing that Kapilina did. Great venders. Delish cool, and crowd great. Everyone gave good courtesy.

Yo PEOPLE, I'm a NAVY"BRAT".Dad(&Mom)were transferred to Pearl NAS @ '59. We lived on Iroquois Dr. Backyard was the Pacific Ocean. In the morning (dawn) bro& I would sneak out the back door to swim&play in the surf.

Beautiful and sweet location.

Wonderful views of Honolulu and ships or planes arriving and departing

I live here

Wouldn't live any place else

BEAUTIFUL

NOT A PUBLIC BEACH. Private Beach. They are “anti-visitors”,non-residents can only access the area by filling in a stack of paperwork. Wasted 1 hour of vacation driving to and from this place. The only negative experience of Hawaii in my life. Also there is nothing Hawaiian about this place, you could be in Orange County CA or suburban San Diego.

Beautiful place to relax. Very familiar and clean.

My family and I had the beach to ourselves. Totally enjoyed it here

Absolutely lovely. My only complaints are that the sand hurts to walk on and the airport noise takes away from the ocean sounds. But the location is great and Food Truck Wednesday is awesome too

This beach is located on the West side of the island and gives you a nice view of the East side of the island. You can even watch the planes taking off and landing at Honolulu Airport. It was very windy when we went so that wasn't fun because you feel cold due to the wind. Also, the sand is very coarse and has sharp pebbles and branches so it's painful to walk on. I highly recommend wearing water shoes if you decide to visit here. And you need to have valid car registration to enter because it's located inside a gated community and they have security at the gate verifying you're not a homeless person trying to sneak in.

love this beach, right in my backyard! waves are usually nice and big, and it is never busy unless there is a event nearby.

So beautiful

Very nice shallow beach. Great for kids and non swimmers.

Nice quiet peaceful neighborhood beach inside guarded access Kapilina Beach Homes area. Some decent beginner south shore waves

Nice beach if you can get in. It's part of the military homes. They have a food bar with great food and alcoholic drinks.

Private...no public access, you have to be resident.

A lot of planes coming in for a landing on the day I was there. Interesting to watch.

Beautiful place, great for paddleboarding.

Beautiful views of the mountains and the ocean ... quiet and peaceful

Haven't seen a beach on Oahu that's not awesome. Get reAdy to enjoy

Great time with my family!

Nice view of the ocean.

Great place to swim. Located in Kapilina.

We were there for a birthday celebration, what a good time we had.

This is home

Such calm waters

It's nice to have a couple private beaches here at Kapilina, but they are full off rocks. It is actually painful just trying to get far enough into the water to swim. Maybe beach shoes would help.

Peaceful and my favorite pass time. I visit almost everyday while visiting fiancee

Beach was awesome. Thorns in the sand not so awesome. Parking sucks

Beautiful for sunsets

Great beach amazing views...

My 2nd time going out there! As always, beautiful!

Awesome beach overlooking Pearl Harbor. But for private community only, and a bit windy, dien wind from Hickam Airbase & Honolulu Airport.

Beautiful views of downtown and Diamond Head.
