Sherwoods Beach

I loved this beach. It’s not one of those tourist beaches. There were not too many people there but there were a lot of Man o wars. I didn’t get stung but 3 of my friends did.
While walking along the shore we saw two weddings. Must be a popular place to get married.
Parking is easy to find but finding your way to the beach through the houses is a little interesting. I’d come back. Pro tip: on your way there, there is a McDonald’s that serves TARO pastries.

This beach is breathtakingly beautiful when there’s not a lot of people around lol. My honey and I decided upon an intimate wedding on this particular beach. Mostly locals busy themselves here with their friends and family, and on occasion there will be a good amount of tourists. With my luck it was more packed on the day we tied the knot then any other weekend. I guess they wanted to celebrate with us;). The photographer did her best to not get people walking and laying around in the sand in our photos. There were other brides as well captivating their moment on this wondrous beach. The water was crystal blue with clean tan sand between our toes. I closed my eyes and breathed in the ocean air. Ahh no pollution nature at its best with just the waves crashing onto the beach. We walked a little towards the forest area once we were done documenting our smiles, kiss, hugs, and vows by the water. The trees were unique, incredible, and enormous. We needed some of those in our wedding album. The views from the forest to the beach were indescribable. Maybe I am being bias since we got married here;) Mother nature blessed Hawaii. Thank god we were brought together after five years to begin and create our first memory as a unit becoming husband and wife on Sherwood beach.

Forest or beach? Why not both! That’s what Sherwoods Beach is, both! An amazing forest, something akin to the moon of Endor and a beach as clean and clear as kailua or lanikai.
Older locals say it can get dangerous here but when I went here last week it was fine. It was the off-​season but there were still a few locals and a few tourists just basking in the Hawaiian sun.
While parking I saw cops patrolling the neighborhoods which made me feel more safe than wary. Parking is a breeze, just park anywhere you can, watch for «no parking» and «tow away» signs.
I spent an hour or so here. Crystal clear water, very soft sand, this beach is perfect for sunbathing, swimming, or exploring the forest.
There are acceptable bathroom and showers here as well. Food options are not walkable from this beach, you have a drive 5−10min.

This is beach is just next to bellows, my husband likes this beach, sandy beach and bellows.
