OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Halona
Beach Cove intimate and cozy beach on the
south shore of Oahu. It became a popular
beach and achieved legendary status when in
1953 it was featured in the movie "From Here
To Eternity". Remember the scene with the
couple lying on the sand and kissing while
the gentle waves washed up around them?
Hence, the small beach has the nickname of
"Eternity Beach".
To get to the beach, just find the Halona
Blowhole and head to your right. You must
hike down a rocky slope to arrive at the
beach. A warning though; the slope can be
slippery and sharp, and the angle of decent
a bit steep. Please wear shoes when
attempting this hike.
There are no lifeguards at this beach, so
its best to swim here when the surf is calm.
There can be dangerous currents if you stray
to far out, especially near the blowhole, so
don't go near it or any rocks and stay close
to shore.
You can find free parking at the Halona
Blowhole Lookout.
There are no bathrooms at Halona Beach
Cove. |

While
Hawaii's beaches can bring much enjoyment,
it is always a good practice to use common
sense while visiting them. Please be aware
of the wave & wind conditions before going
into the water. Mornings are usually best
for swimming, snorkeling or diving. Have
respect for the strength of the waves and be
aware that high surf can come up at any
time. NEVER turn your back to the ocean.
Be careful when exploring any rocky
shorelines. Waves can crash on the rocks and
knock you over easily, and the rocks may
also be sharp when walking on them.
When snorkeling or scuba diving, please have
respect for ocean life, and remember that
the coral reef is alive too. Avoid standing
on or touching if at all possible. |
