of Kailua and on the windward coast of Oahu, Hawaii.

The name Lanikai means “heavenly sea.”

It is accessible from the nearest road

by a hike of approximately 1.5 miles.

The Pillbox Hike

The Lanikai Pillbox Hike,

also popularly known as the Kaiwa Ridge Trail,

is one of the most picturesque and pleasant Oahu hiking trails.

This intermediate hike rises just above beautiful Lanikai Beach Oahu,

rewarding hikers with some of the best vistas of Oahu’s windward side.

Snorkeling at Hanauma Bay

Hanauma Bay

was declared a protected marine life conservation area

and underwater park in 1967.

Formed within a volcanic cone,

today Hanauma Bay offers a pristine marine ecosystem.

Millions of visitors visit and love to snorkel Hanauma Bay.

Pearl Harbor, located on the island of Oahu,
is one of the most frequently visited historic places in Hawaii.

An estimated 1.5 million people visit Pearl Harbor every year

to pay their respects to those who perished on this

“day that will live in infamy”

and to learn about an important part of world history.

Diamond Head on Oahu’s south shore.

The beach fronts the upscale neighborhood of

Ka’alawai.

It is a narrow, white-sand beach

with a shallow reef offshore.

Byodo-In Temple in Kaneohe, Hawaii

The Byodo-In Temple is a non-denominational shrine

located on the island of O’ahu in Hawai’i

at the Valley of the Temples.

It was dedicated in August 1968

to commemorate 100-year anniversary

of the first Japanese immigrants to Hawaii.

Pipeline surfing on the North Shore

The Banzai Pipeline, or simply “Pipeline” or “Pipe,” is a surf reef break

located in Hawaii, off Ehukai Beach Park in Pupukea on O’ahu‘s North

Shore. A reef break is an area in the ocean where waves start to break

once they reach the shallows of a reef. Pipeline is notorious for huge

waves which break in shallow water just above a sharp and cavernous

reef, forming large, hollow, thick curls of water that surfers can tube ride.

Sunset Beach

is on the North Shore of Oahu in Hawaii

and known for big wave surfing

during the winter season.

Horseback riding on the North Shore
