Oahu

Destination information

Oahu is the liveliest Hawaiian island with the fabulous beaches of Waikiki offering non-stop fun and a happening, resort atmosphere.
While away your days on the beach until evening - that's when the countless restaurants and bars come into their own, so you can't fail to have a good time! Southeast along the coast from Waikiki is the area's most famous landmark, the extinct volcanic cone of Diamond Head.
Just 3 miles west of Waikiki is Hawaii's capital, Honolulu. It has a fabulous setting, ringed by extinct volcanoes and backed up by lush valleys. Explore the city and visit Pearl Harbor, still the base for the US Pacific Fleet - the film was a turkey but the WWII memorial is fascinating. Waikiki is a great city with a chilled-out atmosphere. Shops, both designer and otherwise, are in abundance and sit well alongside exciting Wakiki Beach.
Up on the famous North Shore, a 2-hour drive from Waikiki, surfing reigns supreme every winter at Waimea Bay, and it's worth a visit just to see them in action.
Waikiki offers all kinds of fare, from fast food to fine dining, and all manner of types, from classic US favourites and fresh seafood to Pacific Rim delights.
