Historical public shore-access inventory, 2008. Fish catches, underwater features and a usable fishing stance have not been verified at this coordinate.
ORIENTATION
What this reference can tell you
This entry provides a starting point for observing the actual coastal habitat. Potential targets depend on the sand, rock and water you can see; no fish presence or underwater feature is established by the access coordinate.
Reach the public shoreline by the stated access, inspect the water and select a permitted shore position with a clear return path. Choose a target and presentation from what is visible on site, rather than from this entry coordinate.
ACCESS CHECK
Before choosing a place to cast
- Public coastal entry at the Hawaiʻi Kai park.
- Keep clear of the boat channel and launch operations. Maunalua Bay species and method restrictions apply in the regulated waters.
- Historical public shore-entry coordinate in WGS84, from the 2008 inventory. Current access and the actual shore position require checking.
RULES
Check the exact water
- Check Maunalua Bay species and method restrictions for the waters from Diamond Head Lighthouse to the Spitting Caves boundary. This designation is not a blanket closure of shore fishing.
Location markers are not permission to fish. Regulations, park hours, emergency closures and signs can change after this page was reviewed.
OCEAN SAFETY
Conditions can change the plan
- Keep shore fishing clear of vessels, launch activity and navigation channels. Check the actual casting space on arrival.
A favorable forecast is not a safety clearance. Observe the shore from a dry, stable position and leave when conditions exceed your ability.
