Oahu Travel Blogs

Chris, Dave and I got up and got ready for our big trip to the North Shore. We made ramen for breakfast (I shudder to remember) and somewhere Chris had found coffee and was brewing a pot. I borrowed Chris' extra pair of swim trunks because there was no way I could suffer a repeat of what …

My sisters and I took our annual "sisters trip" to Oahu, Hawaii this year. We had such an amazing time!

I just moved off Oahu after 4 years of living there and can tell ya that renting a car and taking a drive around the shore is AMAZING and its a great way to scope out some culture and great views. Its the shortest coast drive of all the islands and is definitely worth it. Along with that first look…

...The next place on the map I wanted to see was the Pali look out. One of our sales assistance at the Waikele outlet the other day recommended we have a look if we get the chance, so both Mel and I were keen. On the way to the Pali lookout, we stopped at another spot with pretty views where Su…

We went to Oahu, Hawaii in March of 2007. We stayed in Waikiki and had a lot of fun. We snorkeled at Waikiki Beach, Hanauma Bay, and took a snorkel trip through the hotel. We visited Pearl Harbor, climbed Diamond Head, road ATVs through Kualoa Ranch, and swam with dolphins at Sea Life Park.

just put us on a plane or a mountain (just don't put the plane into the mountain) and we will be happy!!! this is much more a photo album than an actual blog. those will come soon!

Beautiful islands with amazing beaches and volcanic mountains. Very scenic, a real paradise. Before going to Hawaii, my expectations were not very high. I thought it was going to be too touristy and crowded, but it wasn´t! (except for Honolulu and Waikiki, in Oahu). I really got amazed by the beauty of the islands. Next time, the Big Island!

Oahu is great once you get out of Waikiki and Honolulu. The untouched west coast and north shore are amazing!

These are some photos from my first trip to Hawaii. I was on the island of Oahu for the majority of the trip, though I flew back home through Kona on the Big Island.

Every year the US Coast Guard Admiral who is the Commander of the Pacific Region and lives in the Diamond Head Lighthouse has an open house for the public.  Guests can climb the stairs to get a unique view of Honolulu and the crystal clear waters off Oahu, Hawaii.  We enjoyed our tour and…
