Independence Day Celebration At Kailua Bay, Hawaii

First 4th of July In Hawaii

This was our family's first Independence Day here in Hawaii, and it took some planning trying to decide where we were going to go to see fireworks. After doing some research and debating, we decided to go to Kailua Bay. We weren't sure how hard it would be to find parking, but we were in luck and the first place we tried had a couple spots available. We lugged all our stuff down to the beach, and found a space that was big enough for us to enjoy it and set up our photo gear. There was an acrobatic air show earlier in the evening, and we liked seeing that. We will share photos from that later on. The fireworks display did not disappoint. We all enjoyed it and they were beautiful. I've been wanting to see fireworks over water for a while and get photos. They were beautiful, and it was fun spending a few hours on the beach before the fireworks. Definitely something we would recommend if you come to Hawaii over Independence Day.
