Mokuleia Army beach -is one of the dog friendly parks listed on Hawaii Humane Society. The beach is gorgeous and there is usually no one around – perfect for dogs like our Thor to play at the beach for the first time. BTW, “Lost” was filmed here -on the stretch of oceanfront. This is the easiest of the beaches on this list to get to. It’s just a few feet off a paved road. But that also means it is sometimes a spot for car break-ins. Put all your valuables in the trunk and leave the windows rolled down. That way there is nothing to take.
Directions:
From Honolulu/Waikiki, enter H1 west, then take H2 North. H2 will end, and keep going straight. After the town ends, ignore the right turn to North Shore/Hale'iwa, and just go straight toward waialua and you will be on Kaukonahua Rd (803). Eventually the road will wind downhill with ironwood trees flanking both sides of the road. At the bottom, go through the yellow blinking light to Farrington Hwy (930). After a half mile there is a traffic circle-- go toward Mokule'ia under the bridge. Continue straight as you see Dillingham Airfield on your left. Before the last entrance to Dillingham Airfield (which is the best access point to view the fuselage storage area), you will see Army related structures on your right. The beach here is the general area of Mokule'ia that was filmed for the pilot. The tree marks the arbitrary border along the Mokule'ia coastline between this "east" or "army" beach, with the "Tiger beach" beyond it to the west that was used for subsequent episodes. Even further out is the beach beyond Camp Erdman, used for the tail-enders' scenes.
