Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Get away from the crowds and Beach Like You Live Here! I lived on Oahu from 2009 to 2023 and these are my favorite "local" beaches. I spend a lot of lunch hours at these beaches and have been taking visiting friends and family to them for years. They are always amazed that there are hardly ever any tourists and so grateful that they got to experience these "secret" special places! Unlike Waikiki or other well-known, popular beaches such as Lanikai, Hanauma, Sandys, Makapu'u, Sunset and Waimea Bay, my favorite beaches are usually pretty empty, especially on weekdays. While mostly unknown to tourists, you can easily reach all of them by public transport or rental car. The beaches recommended, which won't be found together on any other guide site, include detailed directions with maps and addresses, facilities (restrooms, showers, etc,) nearby food and drink options, nearby 'tie-in' activities with links. parking and bus stop info, lifeguards on-site or not, and loads of recent, personally taken photos. There is also a bonus section of tips that will be invaluable on your trip!
