Check out "Hanauma Bay" (snorkle with the gorgeous fishes!!!) 20 MINUTE DRIVE FROM HOSTEL for $5... you can borrow snorkel masks at hostel.... Also Try FUN 1 hour boat ride for $25 on the Catamaran Boat IN FRONT of the Ala Moana Sufrider Hotel- spectacular views of Waikiki - look out for dolphins and Lotsa waves!!! n all-you-can-drink BOOZE -- YOU CAN WALK IN FRONT OF THE MOANA HOTEL AND WAIT FOR THE BOAT TO DOCK EVER 1.5 HOUR to sign up anytime..... Must do The "Diamond Head" Crater Hike for $1- its a 5 Minute drive from Hostel..... Go to "Pearl Harbour"- 45 MINS drive away and WALK INSIDE the HUGE USS Missouri Ship!!! for $25- its great!!! - BE PREPARED TO WAIT 3 HOURS for the FREE MEMORIAL TOUR though..... Jack's Island Tour at the Hostel $40-- MonWedFri---very good!!!-- see the "Blowhole"+ Beatiful Sights+ Sunset Beach , RENT A CAR AND DRIVE UP TO KEANA POINT (north West)- SO GORGEOUS and see the CAVES!!!!.... AND MASSIVE WAVES..... Check out the "Polynesian Cultural Center" 2 HOUR DRIVE NORTH EAST you will LEARN TONS about Polynesian Cultures across the Pacific for $40- Expensive and Far- BUT WORTH IT..... Take a Day Trip to Maui on the Ferry - 3 HOURS - $50 (dont rent an Enterprise car though, they wont let you on) ... Other places we saw but I thought were "ok only": Iolani Palace (not that spectacular- good for Oahu history though), Bishop Museum (learn about science volcanos + polynesian artifacts = good for kids), Ala Moana Mall--- CMON you're in Waikiki-- sure its a big mall, but who needs the high-end stores?!!... If you've NEVER SURFED I would definitely Give it a Shot at Waikiki- it's easier than you think... just be prepared for your arms to ACHE from Paddling!!! :) Also, on Sunday nights they have a Luau at one of the Waikiki Hotels you can "View" from the Beach if you're sneaky- hahaha!!! :) |

If you loved Pearl Harbour and all that history, don't miss the aviation museum, the USS Missouri and the USS Bowfin. The Arizona Memorial has a particular charm, but as a history geek, I liked being able to walk all over the old ships. The US Army Museum in Waikiki is quite good in that respect as well. |

Hike up Diamond Head, it's nothing spectacular, but it does provide some good exercise and photo oppertunities. JACK does a tour 3 days a week that leaves from the Hostels in the area. It is WELL WORTH the $39.00 for a day long tour and info on the Island! He did a great job! |

Jacks tour of Oahu that runs from the hostel 3 time per week, it's excellent. Also, you must take the 22 Bus to Hanauma Bay, its really beautiful and an amazing snorkel spot for first-timers even. |
