Beautiful beach. We went twice on our trip and both times it was not crowded. Plenty of space to swim and enjoy the beautiful water and scenery. Full review by Bruce M

This was our favorite beach on Oahu. The waves are a little strong, but fun. Stepping into the warm water, the bottom drops off quickly but not too deep. This is where the waves break. Walk a little … Full review by Susan R

We stayed in a home on Waimanalo Beach down from the camping area in March 2017. There were some homeless people staying more along the beachline in makeshift tents but they were harmless and very nice. They mostly kept to themselves. Most were not locals - we met a couple from the US actually that purposely went to Hawaii homeless. There are homeless all over the Island just like in the US. They mostly stayed in their shelters until evening and we saw them fishing and at times going through trash for recyclables. They were always very polite and friendly. We stayed 8 days and never felt like we were in any danger. We walked around at night to the few restaurants and went to the beach to watch the moonrise. I used the public restrooms once and found them usable - not extremely clean but not disgusting either. Waimanalo is a gorgeous beach - very private and we've even seen it in commercials after we returned home. It is used mainly by locals who are all very friendly and welcoming. If you walk down the beach towards the south, you will come to a huge reef filled with colorful fish and sea turtles that you can snorkle with. I would go back tomorrow if I could :)
Q:
For those of you who reviewed the Beach in 2017, are there still homeless tents and/or encampments and crime issues?
A:
In November 2016, a small (2-3 people and 2 dogs) group was observed in a campsite near the pavilion. The dogs roamed freely about the beach but the people remained in a grove …
A:
In November 2016, a small (2-3 people and 2 dogs) group was observed in a campsite near the pavilion. The dogs roamed freely about the beach but the people remained in a grove closer to the pavilion than the beach. There was no behavior that would be considered rude or criminal. They were very quiet, quieter than other beach-goers.
Q:
is it possible to get there by bus?
A:
"The Bus" goes just about everywhere on the island. Check their website for routes.
