What tips do you have for visiting Kailua Beach Park?

Quick answer
Arrive early, swim near a lifeguard, paddle in the morning, and leave alcohol and glass at home.
Detailed answer
The main parking lot fills early on weekends and holidays, so arrive early or visit on a weekday. Rent kayaks or boards in Kailua town, since there are no rentals in the park, and paddle in the morning before the trade winds build. Swim in front of a staffed lifeguard tower and look for box jellyfish warnings about 8 to 10 days after a full moon. Remember the park closes nightly from midnight to 4 a.m.
