Highlights

Outrigger canoes first arrived in Hawaii around 200 AD, some large enough to hold up to 80 people, and were filled with essential items like edible plants, water and animals to ensure a somewhat safer voyage for the brave explorers who took off in search of land. Learning to surf an outrigger canoe is a right of passage for men and women of the sea, and it is an honor to do so in the Hawaiian islands where surfing gained a global foothold.

About Oahu

Oahu pairs Waikiki's famous beach and Honolulu's city life with volcanic craters, rainforest valleys and the legendary surf of its North Shore.

Waikiki's crescent of sand, backed by hotels and the volcanic crater of Diamond Head, is the island's classic image, and the hike to the crater rim gives sweeping views. Downtown Honolulu holds ʻIolani Palace, home of Hawaiʻi's last monarchs, and the memorials at Pearl Harbor, including the USS Arizona Memorial, recall the attack of 1941.

Top-ranked sights in Oahu: Diamond Head, Waikiki Beach, Dole Plantation.
