Please note that Bellows Field Beach Park is only open for the public from noon on Fridays to midnight on Sundays only because military exercises are conducted here during the week. Bellows Field Beach Park is rarely crowded and is an excellent destination for bodysurfing and bodyboarding. Bellows Field Beach Park is home to many marine creatures including a jellyfish called the Portuguese Man o’war, a small floating snail called the pupu pani, and the Pacific mole crab called ‘ala ‘eke or commonly known as sand turtles.
