by Ted Felber

The most famous beach in the world, Waikiki Beach, is found here in Honolulu. A two mile stretch of white sand, it has had a recent face lift with nice waterfall features and grassy berms. Of all the Honolulu beaches, it is the prime spot to see and be seen in and a popular place for swimming and surfing lessons.

Nonetheless, there are many lovely and lesser well known beaches around Honolulu. Just west of Waikiki is the Ala Moana Beach Park, a very popular spot with 76 acres of activities. This is a man made sandy beach and most prefer to swim, wade and sunbathe. If you swim, do watch out for strong currents even at low tide. There are food concessions, lifeguard towers and facilities for tennis and softball.
