Take a break from your ordinary routine to relax and rejuvenate in Honolulu. Juicy fresh pineapple, ancient volcanoes, and relaxed island vibes will remind you that you’re very far from the streets of Oakland. Honolulu is located on the south shore of Oahu, and it’s the official state capital of Hawaii. Each of the Hawaiian islands has its own personality and offers a unique experience, and when you visit Honolulu in Oahu, you’ll see it’s no exception. When you imagine Hawaii, you might see sun-soaked beaches and surfers riding massive waves in your mind’s eye. Without a doubt, the beach life is a big part of Honolulu culture, but there are many other ways to experience this island paradise too.
For example, don’t miss out on hiking Diamond Head, the volcano Honolulu is most famous for. If you’re worried about lava, don’t be—this volcano hasn’t spewed any ashes for a very long time! Instead of lava, you’ll see beautiful wildflowers and get a great view of the island when you go on this hike. Afterwards, make sure to hit up downtown Honolulu. Here, you’ll find the impressive Iolani Palace, which was the official residence of the Hawaiian Monarchy. You’ll also enjoy plenty of great shopping and delicious local cuisine when you go downtown.
Before your trip ends, visit the USS Arizona Memorial and Pearl Harbor. The attack on Pearl Harbor in Oahu is an unforgettable part of American history, and this museum commemorates the events of that fateful day. Another great museum to visit is the Bishop Museum. Exhibits focus on Hawaiian culture and heritage, so you can get to learn more about the beautiful place you’re visiting. Are you traveling with kids? The Honolulu Zoo and Waikiki Aquarium are fun stops for people of all ages. Lastly, if you would like a tour of the island, helicopter tours are a popular choice. While being up that high might sound a little scary, we promise the unsurpassable views make it worth it.
