Oahu is home to some of Hawaii's best-known visitor attractions, from historic Pearl Harbor to the wild and pounding surf of Waimea Bay. Relive Hawaii's royal past at Iolani Palace and the venerable Bishop Museum. Above all, Oahu is home to Waikiki Beach, a crescent of white sand and glittering hotels at the foot of Diamond Head crater.

Honolulu is a vibrant and diverse city that combines the very best of Western, Asian, and Polynesian culture into a center of shopping, dining and entertainment. At night it vibrates with nightclubs, dinner shows, and theater. For those well versed in the cuisine of the Pacific Rim, here you'll savor some the best - Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese, Korean, and more. Shopping is a major pastime, with some of the most famous names in couture - Gucci, Chanel and Dior - showcased in Waikiki and nearby Ala Moana Center. Specialty shops abound, as well as traditional department stores and outlet malls. You're sure to leave with suitcases bulging at the seams!

Special events are big part of life on Oahu. Dare-devil surfers test their skills on monster winter waves on the North Shore. The annual Aloha Festivals attracts thousands to celebrate at street parties and enjoy the floral parade. And talented dancers, chanters, and musicians from around the world gather at prestigious hula competitions.
