Honolulu Beach Hotel Guide
A melody from skillfully strummed ukulele strings fills the fire-lit evening while dancers’ grass skirts sway in time with their hips. Your bare feet instinctively start to step and shuffle in the sand as baritone vocals accompany bamboo flutes and drums formed from hollowed tree trunks. As your gaze drifts up to a sky with more stars than you’ve ever seen, you know that this luau is the escape you craved. Aloha, old friend. You’re in Honolulu, Hawaii.
When you stay in Honolulu, hotels on the beach are the best way to experience everything that the island of Oahu has to offer. But before you head out for your Hawaiian adventure, you might like answers to your most pressing questions.
Where should I go surfing on my trip to Honolulu?
With dozens of sweet spots off the city’s coast, surfers won’t be disappointed by the wealth of waves in Oahu. Here are five of our favorites:
- Waikiki Beach: One of the world’s most popular beaches, the enduring breaks here appeal to first-time and veteran surfers alike.
- Banzai Pipeline: Towering waves and a shallow reef make this area, also known as Ehukai Beach, among the most exciting, yet dangerous surf spots known to man.
- Ala Moana: A short walk west from Waikiki, this stretch of sand offers serene waves and access to Magic Island—an artificial peninsula where kids can learn to swim.
- Makaha Beach Park: The historic home of big-wave surfing, this famous spot has sloping sands that affect waves in ways that take a little getting used to.
- Waimanalo Beach: Learn the fundamentals of bodysurfing and bodyboarding at this beach offering gentle waves and warm waters.
Can I swim with dolphins near Honolulu?
