Waikiki is known as the Hawaiian for "Sprouting Water" beach. Waikiki beach is one of the most famous beaches in the world. Its warm waters and rolling surf have been attracting large numbers of visitors since 1901, when the first large tourist hotel, the Moana, opened for business. It is the best travel destination for any kind of vacation that is the two mile stretch of white sand coast and fronted by hotels and tourist facilities.
More importantly, this is also where we will find the surfing waves that Waikiki Beach is famous for. But regardless of how we want to pass the time, the concessionaires along the beach will have something for us to do, from renting surfboards, to outrigger canoe and catamaran rides.
Just remember, that during the summer months Waikiki Beach experiences very high surfs, which can be dangerous to the inexperienced swimmer. So stay close to the shore, and mind the Lifeguards.
Getting to Waikiki is very easy. Oahu has Hawaii’s major airport: Honolulu International Airport. It’s not just the beach though: Check out nearby Kapahulu for local culture and, in particular, the famous malasada, a delicious doughnut, then go shopping at the renowned Kapiolani Farmers’ Market with excellent locally produced produce such as Hawaiian papaya and regional delicacies, and, if you haven’t got one yet, buy the loudest Hawaiian shirt you can find.
