Hawaii has such an array of activities to choose from. One could not fit them all into a typical one- or two-week vacation. Maybe you don’t want to. Maybe sitting poolside at one of the many luxury hotels in Waikiki, or enjoying a bed and breakfast somewhere on the North Shore is just what the doctor ordered. Basking poolside or in the warm sand at one of the many beautiful beaches is quite relaxing, and you may have no urge to do anything else.
However, if you do choose to venture out, Hawaii’s weather provides a multitude of activities to do and see. Let’s start our virtual journey with the island of Oahu. If you head east out of Waikiki one of the first popular sites you’ll see is Diamond Head. Known as Le’ahi to the Hawaiians, its name means “brow of the tuna”.
It was the early Western sailors that named it “Diamond Head” because it would look like diamonds were sparkling on the mountainside when they passed by in their ships. You can climb the Diamond Head summit trail for some awesome views. The trail is just under a mile but it is known to be steep and strenuous in places.
