Sandy Beach Park, located on Oahu's southeastern shore, is a popular destination for experienced bodyboarders and bodysurfers seeking the thrill of its pounding waves and powerful shorebreak. Known as one of the most dangerous beaches in Hawaii, it has earned the nickname "Broke Neck Beach" due to the unfortunate accidents that have occurred here. Despite the risks, many visitors come to Sandy Beach Park to witness the impressive waves, relax on the white-sand beach, and enjoy the park's amenities such as picnic tables, restrooms, and showers.
This beach park offers a unique experience for adrenaline seekers, with its very powerful and shallow shorebreak, quick drop-off to overhead depths, and dangerous lava rocks during low tide. While the beach lacks shade, it compensates with a large grassy area perfect for picnics and relaxation. Visitors should be cautious of the strong currents, dangerous shorebreak, high surf, and sharp coral, as indicated by the red warning flags and signs posted year-round. Sandy Beach Park is a must-visit for those seeking an exhilarating beach adventure on Oahu.
