Kohanaiki Beach Park Overview Located approximately 7 miles north of Kailua-Kona you will find Kohanaiki Beach Park also referred to as Pine Trees Beach. Although the trees on the beach are actually a combination of heliotrope and hau trees, the misnomer of Pine Trees Beach has persevered. Pine Trees Surf Beach Pine Trees Beach is a popular place among the local surfing community due to its consistent waves. Known as “The Sport of Kings”, the Alii (Hawaiian Royalty) enjoyed surfing as a sport as well. Today, visitors can enjoy watching the local surfers daring the waves or join the lineup if you surf, just remember to follow good surf etiquette. For beginners, if you want to give surfing a try, we recommend taking a surf lesson with experienced instructors at Kahaluu Beach Park in Kona, then come to Pine Trees once you are comfortable to catch a few waves. Beach Activities With a rocky bottom, and strong shore break, the swimming at Kohanaiki Beach Park is just okay. However, this great stretch of beach is a renowned location for surfing, barbecues, gatherings, and watching the sunset. It’s no surprise the area is so popular with both locals and visitors.
