In Oahu, beach camping is legal only in designated campgrounds, and it is not allowed to camp directly on the beach in most locations. There are a few public parks and campgrounds where you can enjoy beach camping on Oahu, such as Bellows Field Beach Park, Malaekahana Beach Campground, and Keaiwa Heiau State Recreation Area. Keep in mind that you will need a permit to camp at these locations, and camping is usually allowed only from Friday through Wednesday, with parks closed on Thursdays for maintenance. It's important to respect local regulations and only camp in designated areas to help preserve the natural beauty of Oahu's beaches.
