Waimea is a great beach & I have been many times, but the most frustrating thing is the lack of parking. You often have to park on the road and walk down to the beach which is not only a lengthy walk but dangerous because of the traffic.

Love the cliff!

If you go to Waikiki Beach, and go to Waimean Bay, you'll know what I'm talking about.
Skip Waikiki and go to Waimea. The beach is huge and there is no reef, just sand, so if you are playing in the ocean you won't get cut up. Much of the year the water is very calm, almost like a lake in fact, but if you go in the winter the waves can be huge.

Surfs up

This is where the pro surfers come in winter to test their skills. 20 foot waves break against the shore....Eddie would go.
In the summer the surf calms down and swimming is safe.
