| Things To Do On Oahu If you traveled halfway across the Pacific to work on your tan, go home! |
Your here, now what? There are some worth while sites to see and hard to forget
activities, but where do you start?
I don't think it matters as long as you do or see something memorable.
This is my list of THINGS TO DO:
activities, but where do you start?
I don't think it matters as long as you do or see something memorable.
This is my list of THINGS TO DO:
Snorkeling: Anywhere, just go look at some fish. It's cheaper to rent then to buy.
Snorkeling Adventure: They take you off the island to see dolphins.
Scuba: If your certified or want to get certified.
Snuba: Its a scuba air tank floating on a small raft with a 25 foot hose and a
regulator attached. Its a cross between snorkeling and scuba.
Sailing: Go see another island or some whales.
Kayak: Paddle out from Kialua beach to the Mokulua Islands, a protected bird
sanctuary with a beautiful beach. The best exercise you'll do in paradise.
Surfing: Or boogie boarding. Something with a board and a wave. Make sure you
take a picture to prove to your family and friends that you did it.
Parasailing: Getting drug off the beach with a parachute tied to you. Your the GI
Joe tied to your kite. It's fun! 300 feet in the air with water as your safety net.
(The above two can be found right out side your hotel. No need for a link.)
Paragliding: Completely different. A paraglider is a ram air chute. Its shaped like
an airplane wing and glides like a hang glider. You can stay up for hours and climb
to 18,000 feet, but here in Hawaii probably not more than 2,500 or as high as the
mountains.
Powered Hang gliding: It’s like riding a Harley in the air. Once your air born they
will let you take the controls if you want, or you can just sit back and enjoy the ride.
Remember to bring your camera so you can take the best aerial photographs
imaginable.
Sky Diving: for those of you who like to throw yourself out of perfectly good
airplanes.
PCC: Polynesian Cultural Center, always a must see. It could take 2 days to get
through it all but some people do it in 1day. Even though Hawaii is part of the USA,
the culture makes it feel like its own country. To keep the culture alive, we need to
understand the history. Every thing we love about Hawaii depends on it. Plus, you
help out college students with your entrance fee.
China Town: Part of the culture and history, but also the best place to get
Manapua and fresh water pearls.
The Swap meet: Like a flea market for tourists. It's at the Aloha Stadium and it
goes around the outside of the stadium 3 times. You might need to go take a nap
afterwards, but you will get the best deals on anything you want to bring home or
call a souvenir.
Arizona Memorial: Go pay your respects and learn some history. This will take
most of your day and you need to get your tickets early in the morning.
Duck Tours: An amphibious WWII vehicle. The best way to see Pearl Harbor and
the Arizona Memorial.
Stairway to Heaven: Its 2.5 miles of stairs straight up the side of a mountain. No
switch backs, just straight up and up and up. The up isn't what hurts, it's going down
that will kill you! You might not want to do anything for the rest of the day.
2 Beaches: At least 2 that are not in front of your hotel.
Dole Plantation: Once in your life and that's all. They have delicious ice cream!
Shark Diving: What trip would be complete with out pissing your pants under water.
Dune bug: Don't rent the same car every one else has.
Horse back Tours: Ride horses and ATVs on Kualoa Ranch. Most movies that
were filmed on Oahu were filmed here.
Fishing: Not uniquely Hawaiian but some of the fish might be.
Helicopter Tours: They will fly you around with the doors off if you ask.
Sea Life Park: My kids loves it. They got to pet a baby sea turtle and when they
walked the penguins and sea lions off stage they walked them right in front of us.
We weren't aloud to touch, but they were 5 feet from us. If you want to play with the
dolphins that costs extra, but its worth it.
