Ka’ena Point, the westernmost point on O‘ahu, is the site of one of the last intact dune ecosystems in the main Hawaiian Islands.

The difference is that Ka‘ena Point is open to everyone  -- to see, experience, enjoy, and respect this very special place.

The Ka‘ena Point Natural Area Reserve (NAR), located in the ahupua‘a of Ka‘ena and Keawa‘ula, is about 10 miles west of Waialua on the North Shore and 10 miles north of Wai‘anae on the leeward coast.
