    Looks a lot like Maili beach park, but the ocean front mountain and reef jutting out off the beach means it is Makaha.

    Photo looks to have been taken from Makapuu Beach. Rabbit Island on the far right and KMCAS between it and the Waianae Mountain range.

    I have no idea where this picture was taken but I can guess that there were no lifeguards on duty, the kids were not wearing sun screen, and there were no adults or family members to hover over them like helicopters. Definitely no life jackets.

    It’s Makaha Beach looking south toward Lahilahi Point and, in the distance, Maili Point. This can be confirmed by searching “Makaha beach park photos” and looking under the “images” tab.
