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.
Pearl Harbor, a short drive west, holds the USS Arizona Memorial and other museums on the attack of 7 December 1941. The Bishop Museum explores Hawaiian and Pacific culture. Hanauma Bay, a snorkelling spot in a volcanic crater, and Lanikai Beach on the windward coast are favourites, while the North Shore's big winter surf draws professionals and spectators to Waimea Bay and the Banzai Pipeline.
Local food mixes Hawaiian, Japanese, Filipino and other flavours: poke bowls, plate lunches, loco moco, saimin noodle soup, shave ice and malasadas. Days are warm all year, with highs from the high twenties to the low thirties Celsius. Winters are wetter and bring big surf to the north shore; summers are drier with calmer seas on the south side.
