Papailoa Beach

Papa'iloa Beach, located on Oahu's North Shore, is a hidden gem that has gained popularity in recent years due to its appearance in the TV series LOST. This long and beautiful white-sand beach is situated in the beachfront community of Papa'iloa and offers stunning ocean views. While not ideal for swimming due to a shallow reef along the coastline, the beach is a favorite among surfers, with offshore surf spots like Himalayas attracting big-wave enthusiasts. During the winter months, the waves can be quite large, and in the summer, spearfishers can be seen diving offshore.

Papa'iloa Beach Park, accessible via the public right-of-way near the western end of Papa'iloa Road in Haleiwa, offers a serene and picturesque setting. With its panoramic views, nearshore reef shelf, and sandy shores, it provides a tranquil escape for visitors. Although lacking facilities and lifeguards, the beach is a haven for those seeking a peaceful retreat amidst the natural beauty of Oahu's North Shore.
