Makakilo  | Hawaii |  | Honolulu County | | Makakilo |  |
GuidesMakakilo is a community located on the southwestern shore of Oahu. Largely growing, it is situated near many beautiful sites such as Barber_s Point, several parks and few beaches. This area is primarily residential, but travelers who enjoy outdoor activities will want to make a stop here. Those who like to hike will find numerous trails or water activities such as swimming, snorkeling and deep sea fishing. Within town, there are shopping centers, movie theaters and a vast amount of dining options.
Those who visit Makakilo will notice how much drier it is than other parts of the island. The area is known as the sunny side with a warm, dry year round climate. This is due to the Waianae Mountain ranges causing variations in wind direction and rainfall.
To find the "leeward side" attractions, just a short drive away from Makakilo is a water adventure park, gourmet restaurants and souvenir gift shops.
Ko Olina is close by and offers a world class resort and spa. The accommodations are endless and tourists can find their own paradise hideaway or opt to stay in a hotel. The prices for vacation rentals are affordable and there are spectacular beach and ocean views surrounding the entire area. Makakilo is a great place to escape the tourist traps and crowds of Oahu.
