"Nature preserve with small beach and amazing snorkeling and scuba diving (be gentle with the coral!). Closed on Tuesdays."
Popular paved trail. Just be warned, it's really easy to get sunburn and windburn on this hike. Also, go early -- parking is a pain towards noon.
There is ALWAYS a line out the front door. Whatever you get, get the holder and add vanilla ice cream -- it's worth it. My favorite is lilikoi since it's not really sweet.
The ATV tour is fun! They also have other tours, which are great. Definitely bring your camera. The views from some spots on this ranch are breath-taking! http://www.kualoa.com
Right next to Kailua Beach, you have to drive and park in a small, upscale neighborhood to get here. The scenery is amazing and the water is absolutely calm.
I enjoyed walking around here and taking pictures during the day, then having dinner and watching the evening show (Ha, Breath of Life). http://www.polynesia.com/
Come for drinks and the easy-going vibe. It's along Waikiki Beach at the Outrigger Waikiki Hotel.
If you're looking to go scuba diving, I love Aaron's crew!! They're knowledgeable, friendly, and I like their inventory. The dive masters are a lot of fun as well.
Located within the Prince Kuhio Hotel in Waikiki, the service at this restaurant isn't great, but if you're craving late-night comfort food, this is it. Man vs. Food was featured here as well.
This is actually a part of the Makiki-Tantalus Trail and consists of this trail, Makiki Valley Trail and the Maunalaha Trail. The Makikiki Loop is the easiest.
