Swanzy Beach Park in Kaaawa, Honolulu, offers stunning views but falls short as an ideal beach due to its limited sandy area and shallow reef, making swimming less enjoyable. The park itself is not well-maintained, although it does provide amenities such as picnic tables, a playground, and a basketball court. Camping is available with a permit, and the park is popular among locals for fishing and camping activities.
Donated in the 1920s, the 5-acre beach park was named after Julie Judd Swanzy, and the addition of a seawall to prevent erosion unfortunately resulted in the loss of most of the sandy beach. While attracting some homeless individuals, Swanzy Beach Park remains a favorite spot for fishing and camping among the locals, despite its limitations as a traditional Hawaiian beach experience.
