Heʻeia State Park

One of my favorite spots on the island. Gets very muddy after rains so plan accordingly

The park is lovely but we really enjoyed renting kayaks there to use on Kaneohe Bay. It was much easier than going to Kailua to rent, especially when we wanted to stay in the upper bay area and didn't want to take around that point. I would recommend.

A big swathe of the west side of Kaneohe Bay is taken up by this state park, a favourite location for picnics with beautiful views of the coast.nnThere’s also evidence of habitation going back centuries at the He’eia Fish Pond, a corner of the bay with a man-made reef built to trap fish.nnThis is believed to date back somewhere between 600 and 800 years and has interpretation boards.nnHe’eia Pier is the embarkation point for kayak and snorkelling trips out into Kaneohe Bay, and, thanks to its gorgeous vistas, is unsurprisingly a popular spot for wedding ceremonies.

Nice calm place with great views of the bay.

Beautiful area - great spot to kayak.
