Overview

Located along the Waianae shoreline, Tracks Beach Park is a beach that has light brown sand, many nearby trees, and a sloping incline.  This beach is situated near a power station operated by the Hawaiian Electric Company.  The beach is named after the old railway tracks present nearby - these tracks were used to transport sugar canes to and from the sugar mills along the north-western Oahu shoreline.  These train tracks were decommissioned after World War Two.  Although Tracks Beach Park does not have lifeguards, the beach and the area around it have a few other amenities including picnic tables, restrooms, a nearby grassy area, and showers.  Leashed dogs are allowed in the portions of Tracks Beach Park that are below the high tide line.  Getting to Tracks Beach is easy - the beach is located along Hawaii Route 93 (which is a part of Farrington Highway).  A free parking lot is also available near the beach.  We recommend avoiding leaving any valuables in your car while parking it in Tracks Beach Park, since burglary attempts are known to occur here.  The beach is closed between 10 pm to 5 am.

Tracks Beach Park offers many fun activities including sunbathing, beachcombing, wildlife watching, picnicking, fishing, swimming, surfing, kitesurfing, windsurfing, bodyboarding, snorkeling, bodysurfing, canoeing, kayaking, jet-skiing, surf-skiing, paddle boarding, and boating.  The warm and usually clear water near Tracks Beach is popular among snorkelers, who enter it to explore its vibrant biodiversity - depending on the time of the year, you can view many kinds of animals in the water near the beach including coral, sea turtles, dolphins (especially during the morning), rare Hawaiian monk seals, and many kinds of fish including sting rays, Moorish idol, and unicornfish.  Sea turtles and Hawaiian monk seals are protected under a law named the Endangered Species Act of 1973, and harming them can result in a fine of up to $50,000 and possible imprisonment.  In addition, please also note that it is illegal to be within 50 yards of a spinner dolphin in Hawaii.  The water near Tracks Beach Park also offers great surfing waves.  However, if you are planning to enter the water near Tracks Beach Park, we recommend being careful as the water near the beach frequently has hazardous currents and dangerous waves.
