About Honolulu

Honolulu is Hawaii's capital on the south shore of Oahu, with Waikiki Beach, Diamond Head crater, a royal palace and the Pearl Harbor memorial nearby.

Honolulu spreads along Oahu's south coast between the mountains and the sea. Waikiki Beach is the famous curve of sand, with surf lessons and outrigger canoes, and the green Diamond Head crater at its eastern end is a short hike to a summit with ocean views. In downtown Honolulu, ʻIolani Palace was the home of Hawaii's monarchs and is the only royal palace on American soil, and a gilded King Kamehameha statue stands across the road.

Top-ranked sights in Honolulu: Waikiki Beach, Eternity Beach, Aloha Tower Marketplace.
