The Ala Moana Park Path is situated beautifully with a sandy beach on one side and lively downtown Honolulu on the other. Two busy boat harbors sit at opposite ends of the trail: Kewalo Basin to the west and the Ala Wai Small Boat Basin to the east.

The pathway loops around a wide grassy area dotted with palm trees and picnic pavilions, where drinking water and restrooms are easily accessible. Across the street, you can find places to eat at the Ala Moana Shopping Center. A trail spur juts around the Magic Island peninsula, which has another beach at its tip.

Parking is available in Ala Moana Park (1201 Ala Moana Boulevard) and the Ala Moana Shopping Center (1450 Ala Moana Boulevard).
