Attractions in Waikiki

This urban jungle is "the spot" for endless night life and partying. It holds Hawaii's best mall, many first class restaurants and various bars and clubs. Waikiki also has beautiful white sand beaches ideal for surf lessons and a long day of fun in the sun.

Hunauma Bay
This is a huge tourist attraction for visitors to Honolulu and throughout Oahu, with many tour operators offering snorkel trips to this highly regarding state park. The park is well maintained and offers visitors a pleasant experience. There is a steep downhill hike to the beach, about 5-8 minutes at a leisurely pace. At the end of your day in the park, you can hike back uphill... or take the tram for a buck or two.
 
Na Hoku II
There is not enough space to describe the sunset cruises on this boat. The captain is John John, and he's been running the Na Hoku II for an endless amount of years. You can't miss him. He's big, loud, strong, and tan, with a long ponytail. You will find the boat docked every 2 hours outside of Duke's on the beach, and you can't miss it--it's bright yellow.
 
Diamond Head
Are you ready for some hiking? Diamond Head has a great view from the top...once you get there. It is a moderate-long hike, about 2 to 3 miles.
