This is the name given to a district within Hoakalei Resort in West Oahu centered around the 52-acre recreational Wai Kai Lagoon. Its very name is a poetic marriage of Hawaiian meaning: Wai, water and essence of life, and Kai, ocean water that sustains and heals.
Located on the shores of West Oahu, Wai Kai is an active year-round destination where residents and visitors connect to the water, land, and culture of Hawaii by experiencing first-of-its-kind attractions, signature events, and the natural beauty of the Pacific Ocean. The nine-acre waterfront recreation and lifestyle venue includes the world’s largest deep-water standing surf wave, the adjacent Wai Kai Lagoon for water sports, three incredible restaurants, premium lifestyle retail, and a multitude of event venues including a sprawling event lawn with a waterfront fire pit.
