The beach and the area: Western shore of Oahu is relatively undeveloped comparing to other three sides. It’s very problematic to find good restaurants for lunch/dinner. The nearest are located in Ko Olina and Kapolei. But breakfast is ok to find. There’s a little flavor of poverty in this part of the island. So no complains about the lack of infrastructure - there is not enough wealth in the area to create the same infrustracture as for example in the south-east, south or even north near Haleiwa. Though prices are more advantageous here as we were buying regular gasoline for $3,14 per g while in the south-east it was $3,6-3,8. Lack of infrastructure brings some advantage as you will never find a lot of people on Makaha beach. Even on weekends in late July we could be sitting on the beach with someone else sitting not closer than 15-20 meters to our place. The beach itself is probably one of the best at the island. The sand is beige which means that it becomes very hot in he afternoon. The southern part of the beach has steep sand slope towards the ocean. This is where you can have big waves coming into the shore but only for kids’ surfing. The northern part is flat and is very comfortable for very small kids. Waves are never big there. A good thing is that there is a very wide strip of sand bottom without any stones or coral in the ocean (around 200-300m) so it is very safe for feet. Another plus is that it’s not very windy here as at Oahu during our stay the wind was mostly coming from East. And on the western shore the island protects you. The beach is right on the road, it’s not divided with any bush from the road. It’s very deep so there’s a sense of not so many people around plus you have a sense of security here as everything is clearly visible. There’s no WC on the beach so a 100-300m walk to the bungalow is a need in case. Bungalow There are two bungalows offered on the same territory and it’s clear that the one that is closer to the sea shore is the winner and is worth extra money. The access to the beach, size of the property, sunsets and privacy atmosphere are outstanding. There’s air conditioner in the bungalow but you do not need it. It’s so loud that it overshouts the road. Plus the wind never completely stops here so natural ventilation works perfectly in the bungalow. The noise is the main problem here. The road and cocks are the main noise producers. The road is the main road in the area so vehicles are passing by 24 hours. One bike is enough to wake you up. Cocks are another problem. They start to voice up at 3am and there are so many of them so it’s like a non stop cock rap. Part of our stay...
