Camp Mokuleia is located North Shore side, right across from Skydive Hawaii. My group and I had a horrible experience working with this camp. We came here to stay for the weekend and to host an event on the property. The camp itself is beautiful, you can't complain when you wake up next to the beach every day. HOWEVER, Camp Mokuleia is a HORRIBLE place to host an event at. Strike 1 - Poor Communication. We were in communication with Camp Mokuleia for months. And we even had a walk thru to confirm certain details. However the week of our event, they basically changed everything on us and took back things they said we could do. Strike 2 - Meal Time. What is up with meal time? Why during the entire planning process of our event was the strictness of meal time not explained? Basically the moment they ring the bell we had only 45 minutes to get food. Then after the 45 minutes were up, they would take the food away. From there, you only have 15 minutes to return all the dishware. A very strict hour is allowed. No flexibility. Strike 3 - Facility. Every day we were here, something went wrong. I would have to say the two big issues was we discovered that one of the group cabins we rented had no hot water and that sparks came out of the wall outlet and fried someone's laptop battery. And on a side note.. There was HUGE spiders in the showers =____= and not like 1 or 2 of them. There was about 10!!! TT_____TT" Strike 4 - The Gate. Camp Mokuleia leaves the front gate open all day. However, when night comes they keep the gate closed. On the first day they provided us a code to open the gate to let guest come and go. However, the code provided did not work and guest were stranded with their cars outside late at night. They were forced to park their cars outside till the next day. Thankfully there were no break-ins or damages to the cars left out on the street.

This review is only for parking and putting up a tent not cabins or venues. I like that its very secure. There is an entry gate as well as it being fenced all the way around to keep out or to deter some undesirables. Beautiful area to drive in and park however it also being the main and only issue in this review. There is a nice place to park but its kind of far from actual camp sites and quite a distance to lug and carry all the things needed to camp. They should make a trail to drive your vehicle in even just to unload. Our campsite was one of the closer ones and it was at least 50 yards or more away from the parking. The campsite is beautiful with shade from trees...grassy areas...faucets near by....decent bathrooms...warm water showers nice beach access ...even a cool place to chill in the ocean and oops another issue was wish the bathrooms had light but other than that a nice relatively safe place to tent camp. I have also camped at bellows and friends of malaikahana both are pretty cool though but not as secure as camp mokuliea but my preference would go with those two just because of the ease to unload and set up. If you dont mind a 50 yard or more walk to unload then camp mokuliea might be for you.

I went to this camp as a chaperone for a group of about 100 students. It was a crazy experience but the Camp staff made it much easier! I think my favorite part of the two days was finally being able to lie down in our cabins and falling asleep to the sound of the waves. This place is really beautiful. Even though the students couldn't be on the beach (due to the school's guidelines, not the camps) they enjoyed seeing the blue water, turtles and the occasional eel! The beach was clean and the facilities were too. Bringing a group here was a great, community- building experience. The staff are knowledgeable and patient. Their knowledge of camp games, Hawaiian culture and teens helped the teachers immensely. They were agreeable to dietary needs and the students enjoyed the food. Communicating with the staff was easy and we were able to work together to support the students!

I liked this camp. I'm a pretty simple casual person, so I don't need a room at the Trump Tower to be comfortable. The views from the Lodge were awesome!!! So beautiful to watch the waves break. Going to sleep with the sound of the ocean was the best! The bedroom and bathroom were very clean. My church had the whole Lodge (all 20) rooms and the HUGE living area and kitchen to ourselves. Loved every minute. Just remember to bring a bar of soap and shampoo :)

Chaperone for a group of high school students and stayed for a week. Food was great, hosts were kind, and for the money the place was good. It was about a step above roughing it in the cabins. I recommend that you bring a fan if you come in warmer months and if you have a bad back the bunk beds probably not the best. But as a young teacher with high schoolers this place was fine. These California kids freaked our about the baby roaches at the beginning but after a day they were non existent and the girls mustered up the courage to kill them. We only partook in kayaking and the blind obstacle course while we were here.

Beautiful beach

I got the chance this weekend to spend some time at camp mokuleia. Growing up I use to come here in the summer camp. This was the 1st time being back..since let's just say a long long time ago lol. Wow has this place changed. They still have some of the old structures up but have added new ones on to it. It was nice an relaxing just as I remember. I loved the camp area. You get your own private little area. There's a sink right there to was your dishes. They have hot water showers and the new bathrooms are nice. Better then the public ones. I guess that's why it's kinda pricey to camp there. But me not liking camping. I think I would be able to stay here. We got to see a turtle today that was awesome .

Great place to camp. All the necessities are there. Warm showers, sinks, picnic tables, garbage cans, it's clean, parking is secure, etc. And it's all right on the beach! Swimming and snorkeling out front.

Not nearly as many people and lots of empty sand for people to lay their blankets down without being too close to each other. Was so peaceful just sitting on a rock to watch the surfers coming in on the waves (or at least trying to!). There were young ones on their body boards close to the shore, too. I think there must've been folks trying to learn to surf here. There were two groups of people with boards beyond the first few waves. Was wonderful just to sit and watch them! I just wish there were turtles and monk seals there, but we weren't fortunate enough for that!

If you're lucky you can get a parking at the back gate on Pikai street and walk through straight to the beach! The bathrooms are pretty far from here but you can always drive to the beach park or there's even Kaiaka beach park next door with showers too. ***The one thing about parking here and coming here is to be very respectful as you're in a residential area. Lots of locals but also lots of places are rented out to tourists. You're pretty much at their back yards. It's also the best place for the sunset! Which it gets a little busier at the time with families walking or driving over just to catch the last hour. It's clear and good for children. Sometimes it can be a little choppy so of course still use caution anytime you're at the beach. There's not a lot of shade but still my favorite spot. We recently moved to waialua so this'll be my favorite place to come with my family at least once a week

Although there isn't a parking lot (the only thing that makes it a 4/5 stars), this is a great public beach park. There is a basketball court and a playground that has a swing set.

With a playground for the children, a basketball court for a quick game, and the beach steps away, it is a perfect stop for any day of the week. Whether it's a beach date, grilling with friends, playing with your fur baby, or taking a quick dip, this spot is one of my new favorite spots that I have found. The calm, shallow waters are perfect for cooling off after a run. The best thing is that there is plenty of street parking, bathroom facilities, and an outdoor shower. Pro tip: You need to stay for sunset. Each one I have seen is even better than the last. I'm here almost every week for my afternoon run followed by a dip, and I have to stay every time to see the sun light up the evening sky.

The trail was very easy to find, just search for the trail on google maps and the map will lead you to the parking lot next to Dillingham Airfield (look for "West Gate). After parking, head towards the mountain to get to the trailhead. It took us 1 1/2 hours to the covered picnic table, mostly because we were pausing for water breaks and photos with the kids. Tips: wear plenty of sunscreen, a hat, and bring LOTS of water. It gets hot!

Nice little trail on the north shore…read more You park at the dillingham airport and the trailhead is across the street. Not hard to find. The first half mile is shaded switchbacks. The mile after that is exposed. It sort of reminded me of hikes in SoCal. The gradient isn't too bad because of the switchbacks but you are going up about 1000' in like 1.5 miles. So the climbing can feel a bit relentless. No scrambling over rocks and other obstacles like some other Oahu hikes. I thought it was fairly easy. I think anyone in decent shape won't have any issues. For those who are just beginning your fitness journey, this would probably be a good workout. The trail is easy to follow. Very little chance of you getting lost (at least to the picnic table which was my turn around point). It's very rocky but walking/hiking isn't an issue. Trail Runners: I saw some other trail runners but this wouldn't be my first choice trail on the north shore. The switch backs don't go on long enough to get any sort of rhythm after the half mile point. And while I wouldn't say this is the most technical of runs, you definitely have to pay attention. I went super slow on the decent for my first time. I may go back and go past the picnic table to see what's up there but I'd say skip this if you're a runner. Hikers will like it I think. And it wasn't too crowded. I saw a handful of people on my run. The views are ok. There are definitely much more scenic views on Oahu but these weren't bad by any means.

On a recent visit, it was easy to feel the aura of peace surrounding the unusual natural rock configuration that appears to balance one large rock on top of another. Pohaku Lana'i offers plenty of parking for easy access to the grassy park area where the Balance Rock is located. Close to the ocean, the park is a comfortable place for people to gather, enjoy the beach, and restroom facilities are available as well.
