Oahu Activities


Oahu Activities
island activities	Every outdoor activity in the Hawaiian Islands can be found on Oahu. Go sport fishing, kayaking, snorkeling, surfing, windsurfing, horseback riding, hiking, bicycling and much more. Watch cliff diving and Polynesian cultural shows to make your stay all the more memorable and unique.
Island Beaches	The Island is ringed by scores of tropical beaches and endowed with lush, green mountain ranges. Easily among the most famous of the Island's beaches are Kailua Beach and the beaches of North Shore. Kailua Beach has been voted the second most beautiful beach in the US. It stretches for approximately two miles along the Windward Side of the Island, and when you stay in our Kailua Beach home you are right on the best part of the beach. If you're looking for restaurants, outdoor activities and adventure, then Kailua area has plenty to offer and the excitement and convenience of Honolulu is a mere twenty-minute drive down the Pali Highway. North Shore is known for its many secluded beaches and some of the world's best surfing. Near our North Shore homes is the historic town of Haleiwa known for its blend of cafes, art galleries, boutiques and shops with remnants of the old Hawaiian plantation days. Recently, the makers of the popular TV show Baywatch chose North Shore as the new filming location over its previous location in Los Angeles. The first show aired in October of 1999. Studios have long chosen North Shore as the filming location of many popular TV-shows and movie titles including Hawaii 5-0. When you visit North Shore you won't believe you're only 45 minutes from Honolulu.
oahu	The Pacific island of Oahu, our personal favorite among the Hawaiian Islands, is where all our Hawaii vacation homes are located. You can drive the coast of the entire island in about two and a half hours. Most of the population is concentrated in Honolulu. A common misconception about Oahu is that if you stay on Oahu you will be staying in Honolulu (or a big city) and you won't be able to enjoy the "outer island experience." This couldn't be further from the truth. Oahu has more beautiful and secluded beaches than Maui and you can stay right on the beach in one of our homes. Nowhere else in Hawaii, or almost anywhere for that matter, you can enjoy a private home on a remote, tropical beach as little as twenty minutes from the world class restaurants, nightlife, shopping and entertainment of Honolulu.
Honolulu	Oahu is the only one of Hawaii's islands which enjoys the convenience of a beautiful and thriving modern city: Honolulu. Honolulu boasts more world-class entertainment, dining at places such as Roy's fusion cuisine, shopping and nightlife than all of the other islands combined. Practically every outdoor activity imaginable takes place in and around this city. A visit to Honolulu's historic China town or the specialty stores at Kapahulu are just minutes away from our waterfront home. Waikiki, perhaps one of the world's most famous beaches, Hanauma Bay with its majestic coral reef, Pearl Harbor, where one of history's most famous battles took place, and the fortress-mountain of Diamond Head are only a few of the exciting locales situated in or in close proximity to this magnificent island city. Of course, relaxing peacefully on the beach or your lanai at any one of our homes, you would never realize that Honolulu shares the Island with you.
