One of the Best Beaches in the North Shore of Oahu

Right at the foot of Puu O Mahuka Temple, dedicated to the war God Ku and known for human sacrifice, there is a beach called Three Tables.

This area was famous for the abundance of sandalwood trees, natural spring waters, salt collection, and great fishing.

During the summer months this beach is a very cold, natural pool. The coral reefs are full of colorful fish and the occasional turtle, making it a popular snorkeling spot.

The entire beach is surrounded by almond trees and there are plenty of wild chickens around.

The abundant wildlife and marine life, as well as the lack of large waves in the summer, make this beach one of the best on Oahu.
