• Diamond Head State Monument - Amelia Earhart Lookout is a stunning vantage point near Diamond Head State Monument, offering views of the clear blue waters where Amelia Earhart made history as the first person to fly solo from Hawaii to North America. This lookout provides excellent photo opportunities of Oahu’s southeastern coastline, with notable sights extending to Hanauma Bay and even Maui on clear days.
• Halona Blowhole - This natural marvel on Oahu was created by volcanic activity thousands of years ago. Today, Halona Blowhole occasionally shoots seawater up to 30 feet into the air as waves rush through underwater lava tubes. The viewing area offers a breathtaking view of Halona Cove, a picturesque beach featured in numerous movies and music videos. Winter visitors might also spot whales in the nearby waters.
• Sandy Beach Park - Known for its powerful shore breaks and fine sand that gets everywhere, Sandy Beach is a serene and beautiful stretch of sand just beyond the popular Halona Blowhole. This isolated Oahu beach offers a magnificent scene, especially after driving along the lava rock cliffs of Koko Head Crater.
• Makapu’u Point - This spot offers stunning coastal views and sights of offshore islands. Gaze into the azure waters of the bay to see Oahu’s famous Manana Island, also known as Rabbit Island due to its rabbit-like shape.
• Byodo-In Temple - Built to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the first Japanese immigrants arriving in Hawai’i in 1868, Oahu’s Byodo-In Temple is also known as Phoenix Hall in Japan. The temple’s design resembles the outstretched wings of a bird, and a Phoenix sits atop the roof. Walking around the back reveals the building’s T-shape, with a pond flowing underneath. Constructed in three years, the temple was dedicated in June 1968 with a traditional Buddhist ceremony and has since become one of Oahu’s top ten attractions, drawing over 300,000 visitors annually. Inside, a Lotus Buddha and brass artwork adorn the ceiling, while the surrounding gardens and pond offer additional beauty.

• Laniakea Beach - TURTLE BEACH - Located on Oahu’s North Shore, Laniakea Beach is renowned for frequent sightings of Hawaiian green sea turtles, earning it the nickname “Turtle Beach.” This is a fantastic spot to watch gentle waves bring turtles ashore for sunbathing, making it one of Hawaii’s most reliable turtle-watching locations.
• Oahu’s North Shore - SUNSET BEACH - This legendary big-wave surfing spot hosts towering waves and surfing contests from November to April. Unlike the crowded beaches of Waikiki, Sunset Beach on the North Shore offers tranquility and epitomizes a beautiful Hawaiian beach.
