Iroquois Lagoon Beach 2

This beach is located on the West side of the island and gives you a nice view of the East side of the island. You can even watch the planes taking off and landing at Honolulu Airport. It was very windy when we went so that wasn't fun because you feel cold due to the wind. Also, the sand is very coarse and has sharp pebbles and branches so it's painful to walk on. I highly recommend wearing water shoes if you decide to visit here. And you need to have valid car registration to enter because it's located inside a gated community and they have security at the gate verifying you're not a homeless person trying to sneak in.

Nice beach area. You have to give your driver's license and insurance info to guards at the entrance to get in. Beach is nice, though there is a lot of trash at both ends.

I used to live here so it was a sweet opportunity to be able to get into the housing area. It is gated and requires id to get in. The housing is now public and available for rent. The beach is as I remembered it, but they've since added lounge chairs and raised huts that you can sit in. It was really a beautiful view of Diamond Head from the shoreline. You could also see Tripler Hospital.

Beautiful sheltered beach with views of the airport. Hardly anyone was there, our family enjoyed the beach with just one other family. It truly was paradise! FYI, you can only access this beach with someone who lives in the gated community.
