Nestled on the southern shores of Oahu, Honolulu is the capital of Hawaii and offers a perfect blend of a relaxing beachside oasis and a bustling cosmopolitan city. Explore the neighbourhood of Waikiki, where you’ll find most of the city’s major hotels and resorts – in addition to the world-famous shores of Waikiki Beach. The area has a rich history dating back to the 1800s when it was frequented by Hawaiian royalty, and today it’s one of the island’s best spots for surfing. Hike to the top of Diamond Head State Monument (known locally as Leahi) to admire panoramic views of Honolulu’s skyline and coast. Grab a refreshing Hawaiian shave ice from a beachside truck or indulge in some fresh seafood and poke at one of Honolulu’s top-rated restaurants. There are Honolulu vacation packages for every travel style, ranging from classic hotel rooms to waterfront bungalows at popular resort chains like Outrigger and Aqua-Aston.
