Ko Olina is a well-known vacation area in the west of Oahu with several "high-end" resorts and hotels. It consists of four beautiful man-made lagoons protected from large waves and three natural smaller lagoons.

Swimming and beach admission

All beaches are covered with fine white sand and are exemplarily maintained by the hotel resorts. Although all beaches are on resort property, they must be open to the general public free of charge. In addition, all the beaches are connected by a walkway about 2.5 km long, winding through the shade of mature palm trees.

Sun umbrellas and sun loungers are available, but only for hotel guests. There are no bars or bistros for the general public, only free public toilets and fresh water fountains.

The calmest of the beaches is definitely Ko Olina Lagoon 4 on the south coast near the yacht marina.
