Where to Hike on O‘ahu

Oʻahu offers breathtaking views, and the best way to take them in is by hitting the trails. Swap your flip-flops for sneakers—these hikes take you from misty rainforests to coastal cliffs, with just enough effort to earn that post-trek drink. Whether you're chasing sunrise, sunset, or just need an excuse to unplug, these trails give you a one-of-a-kind look at the island’s āina (land)—and you’ll definitely want more.

Nighttime in Waikīkī

People often think Waikīkī is just hotels and chains but if you go off the beaten path you will find some hole in the wall spots that are true hidden gems. Locally owned and iconic neighborhood spots! Not your typical tourist bar but instead places where we love to go and gather with friends, drink, share food, and of course dance. These places still hold the spirit of old Waikīkī.
