Ala Moana Beach
About
In Oahu, Ala Moana Beach sits at Honolulu, Hawái 96815, United States, on the southern shore of the island. It is a public beach, and the city and county of Honolulu maintains it as part of the local park and beach programme.
Ala Moana Beach is known for its calm, protected waters and its position close to the Ala Moana area of Honolulu. First-time visitors should expect a sheltered swimming spot rather than surf, which makes it a straightforward choice for families and casual swimmers. A 4.8 out of 5 rating from 175 reviews places it among the better-regarded beaches on Oahu.
Details of the beach programme appear at http://www1.honolulu.gov/parks/programs/beach/alamoana.htm. Waikiki, Kailua, Haleiwa and the North Shore all lie within Oahu, so the beach is reachable from the main visitor areas without leaving the island.
Hawaii's trade winds blow from the northeast and bring most rain to the windward coasts, so the leeward side around Honolulu stays drier. The islands also run a wetter season from November to March and a drier one from April to October, which shapes the best months for beach visits.
