Kuhio Beach Park is located between the Sheraton Moana Surfrider and the Diamond Head end of Waikiki Beach on Oahu. The Duke Kahanamoku statue, the Prince Kuhio statue and the Stones of Kapaemahu (the wizard stones) are located in the park.

The surfing statue was created in 1990 on the 100th anniversary of the Duke's birth. The statue honors Duke Kahanamoku as the father of modern surfing. Walk along the main road to reach it, take the number 2 bus or the trolley.

Activities

Take a surfing lesson, go catamaran sailing, rent an outrigger canoe and walk along the large pedestrian promenade toward the ocean. From the promenade, you'll get a full view of the shoreline. The water is shallow and protected near the end of the promenade, so after a walk jump in for a swim.

Facilities

The park offers equipment rentals, restrooms, showers and picnic tables.
