Kuilei Cliffs Beach Park is a narrow, extended beach on Oʻahu, just past Diamond Head Lighthouse. A paved path winds down from the road, with views of the lighthouse and coastline along the way. The quieter shore draws surfers to its moderate waves and suits a morning walk, sunbathing or windboarding. The descent is steep, and facilities at the beach are limited to parking and a shower, so bring food and drinks and take care on the path.
The path to the beach
Kuilei Cliffs Beach Park lies just past Diamond Head Lighthouse. From the road, a paved path descends to the shore. The slope is steep, so watch your footing on the way down and allow for the climb back up.
A narrow shore and open views
The beach runs for a long distance but is narrow. Surfers use the moderate waves, and the coast and lighthouse provide views along the approach. There is a shower and parking, but few facilities at the beach itself. Bring your own food and drinks, and take all your belongings and rubbish with you.
