"Like many beaches on the North Shore, Sunset Beach has a split personality. In winter big swells arrive, along with pro wave riders and the posse of followers these rock stars of the sea attract. The second leg of the Triple Crown of Surfing takes place here in late November and early December. In summer Sunset is a prime place to log beach time. Waves calm down, there’s a swimming channel before the reef and trees for shade."

"Lanikai Beach offers soft, white sand and fantastic views of the Mokulua Islands State Seabird Sanctuary, a couple of offshore islets full of Hawaiian birdlife. Neighboring Kailua Bay has a long stretch of sand with mountain views and beachside parks with facilities. Just a few miles up the road, the large Kaneohe Bay has a huge sandbar and a triangular islet known as Chinaman’s Hat that you can paddle out to. He’eia State Park and Kualoa Regional Park are both on the bay."

"Instead of Waikiki, head over to the less-crowded Lanikai Beach, which is often ranked one the best beaches in Oahu. The bright white sand beach and endless blue water is definitely a reminder of why many people call Hawaii “paradise.”"

"Located in Honolulu, we serve only the highest quality chicken finger meals. It's our ONE LOVE. Our crew makes it happen, our culture makes it unique, and the community makes it all worthwhile."

"Featuring live music, hula dancing, and a signature Mai Tai, House Without a Key offers a tranquil dining experience with incredible ambiance. The restaurant and its splendid ocean view from beneath a 100-year old Kiawe tree served as the inspiration for a 1925 Earl Derr Biggers novel that spawned two film adaptations. The menu focuses on an upscale barbecue, highlighted by fresh fish and lots of bold Hawaiian flavors."

"The typical daydream of Waikiki often looks like this: watching the sunset paint the skies over the Pacific Ocean while classic Hawaiian music wafts in the tradewinds, all with a refreshing mai tai in hand. And that’s exactly the scene at. , the oceanfront, open-air restaurant at the posh Halekulani Hotel."

"House Without A Key is a Waikiki staple that even locals go to when they want to watch the sunset over drinks. This waterfront restaurant at the ritzy Halekulani Hotel is delightfully casual. Plus, the restaurant has exceptional views of Diamondhead and Waikiki Beach."

"Looking for a place to try some traditional Hawaiian food during your visit?. Then head to Highway Inn in downtown Honolulu. (Hawaii Magazine named this spot the best Hawaiian food restaurant in town)."

"Wish I could rate this place higher but it just did not live up to the hype or high ratings. I don't know anything about authentic hawaiian food so ..."
