Hawaii Oahu

Oahu... where Aloha begins

With its traditional culture and modern history, the island mainly attracts surfers, families and short stay visitors, who want to experience the Hawaiian dream of palm trees, pineapples, beaches and relaxed atmospheres.Oahu has a lot to offer for all to explore and discover. Honolulu's most honoured landmark, the "Iolani Palace" (the USA's only Royal palace), allows you to take a journey through the times of happiness and tragedy of King Kalakaua and Queen Lili'uokalani. To replace history with stunning views, visit the coastline; perched over 3,000 feet above the Oahu coastline Nu'uanu Pali Lookout offers one of Oahu's most stunning views of the sheer Ko'olau Cliffs.

Oahu's famous Diamond Head is a 760 foot extinct volcano cone, and national landmark; the panoramic view of the south shore is just one reason to climb up there. One of the best known lighthouses, Diamond Head Tower, stands there as a historic reminder of the early attempts to modernize Hawaii's navigation. It is also the final marker for the Transpacific Yacht Race, the west coasts oldest and most prestigious race.

Once a heavily populated Hawaiian Village, Waimea Valley is situated at the base of the K'olau Range; a 1,800 acre rainforest and botanical garden leading to one of Oahu's main attractions, a majestic waterfall. As well as waterfalls and hidden havens, Oahu is also known for its beaches. Famous for its pristine sands, and clear waters, snorkelling and sunbathing has become a big pastime here. One particular isolated beauty is the Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve, which offers a possibility for a unique snorkelling experience.
