Waikiki Kūhiō Beach
Steps from our doors, Waikiki Beach is a must see for any visitor. The birthplace of modern surf culture, this world-famous stretch of beach offers countless photo ops and the perfect place to try surfing or canoeing, or to do nothing at all.
Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve
Formed in a volcanic crater, Hanauma Bay is a snorkeler’s paradise. Focused on conservation and education, access to this spectacular natural resource is limited to 720 visitors per day and 120 per hour. Plan ahead!
Banzai Pipeline
Perhaps the most famous surf spot in the world, the Banzai Pipeline is named for the long tubes formed by breaking waves. Expect to see massive swells on the North Shore between October and March, and of course the daring individuals who ride them.
Ala Moana Beach Park
A local favorite, Ala Moana Beach Park isn’t as famous as Waikiki, but is no less sundrenched or picturesque. An outer reef provides calm waters, and a manmade peninsula called Magic Island forms a protected lagoon perfect for keiki (children).
