Lifeguards on Duty: No lifeguards are present, so swim at your own risk and avoid strong currents further out.
Hazards: Occasional sharp coral and rocks; water shoes are recommended.
Parking Rules:
Street parking within the Lanikai residential area is now prohibited on weekdays to prevent congestion.
Visitors must park outside the residential area and walk to the beach—arrive early to secure a spot.
Parking is allowed on weekends and holidays, but it fills up quickly.
Amenities: There are no restrooms, showers, or other facilities directly at the beach. Plan accordingly and pack all essentials.
Nearby Eats: Kailua Town, just a short drive away, offers plenty of dining options, including local favorites like Boots & Kimo’s and Kalapawai Market.
