Visit Sandy Beach, Oahu, Hawaii

Sandy Beach is a popular local beach on the South Shore of Oʻahu in Hawaiʻi. It is known for its excellent bodyboarding and bodysurfing opportunities due to shore break that breaks very close to the shore. Consequently, more injuries occur per year at Sandy Beach than any other beach in Hawaiʻi, earning it the infamous nickname, "break-neck" beach. The water is especially dangerous during high surf, when strong rip currents are present. The massive shore break here can be dangerous, so bodysurf at your own risk. The beach park is located between Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve Park on the west and Makapuʻu Point on east along 8800 Kalanianaʻole Highway in Hawaiʻi Kai, on Honolulu's southside neighborhood. It's 10 minutes past Hanauma Bay near the Halona Blowhole.
