History
The He’eia State Park is a historic location in Hawaii. The park was cherished by ancient Hawaiians who named it “Ka Lae O Kealohi” (the point of shimmering light). He’eia State Park was given this magical name because during sunset, the rays of light beaming through the Ko’olau mountain range illuminate the bay resulting in a heavenly glow.

Site Visit
I had the privilege of working with Tina who was very flexible with setting up 2 site visits. She is passionate about her position and the company she is working for. She shared her knowledge about ceremony and reception ideas.

As for the state park it has been renovated with upgrades in the prep kitchen, it has a wonderful rustic interior, and the view of Kaneohe Bay is gorgeous.

Best event venue on the island!
He'eia State Park is a beautiful and well-maintained park with a rustic banquet hall located on the Windward side of Oahu. With the Ko'olau, the fishpond, Kaneohe Bay and the gardens filled with native plants, there are breathtaking views everywhere you look. I feel so lucky to have been able to hold my wedding here.
