Once an ahupua’a in old Hawaii, or a subdivision of land ruled by a native chief, the small town of Makaha is located on Oahu’s western shore and provides visitors a unique taste of local life. Thirty-five miles west from the city of Honolulu, Makaha’s isolation yet close proximity to the beach, shopping, restaurants, and various attractions make it a hotspot for romantic getaways and an epicenter for water athletics.

Part of the rural town of Waianae and a short drive away from the community of Kapolei, Makaha Valley provides locals and visitors with an assortment of recreational activities. Because the area is very dry, lots of sun tan lotion and hydration is recommended. Makaha Beach Park, with its calm waters during the summer and high waves during the winter, attracts body-borders, surfers, scuba divers, and swimmers to its surf. Waves average a height of fifteen feet, and may reach up to thirty during the winter months, so it is advised that novice surfers refrain from entering the water during this time.

The site is located on private property, but open to visitors by showing a driver’s license to guards at the gate.
