Haleiwa Alii Beach Park

66 Haleiwa Rd, Haleiwa, HI 96712

A 19-acre North Shore park at the mouth of the Anahulu River, anchoring the town of Haleiwa. Big monkeypod trees, a large grassy lawn, and a sandy beach that hosts contest-grade winter surf. Calm summer water and a protected swim cove make it family-usable when the swells are down.

Great day for photography.
