 Catamaran snorkeling |
1860 Ala Moana Boulevard 414 Honolulu, HI 96815 United States +1 808 942 5077 |
Hop on board Captain Bob's Barefoot I for a fun-packed day on the water. The glass-bottomed catamaran is designed for optimal viewing of sea life and maximum stability in the water. After pick-up from your hotel, you'll enjoy swimming, snorkeling and Hawaiian water volleyball in the dazzling clear water of a secluded bay, followed by a barbecue picnic. The boat sails by noted landmarks like Chinaman's Hat and Gilligan's Island. Book a few days in advance. Review © 2007, Wcities |
 What a rush, dude |
59-337, Ke Nui Road Honolulu, HI 96712 United States +1 808 923 1811 (Tourist Information) http://www.hawaiiweb.com/oahu/... |
Across the street from the Sunset Beach Elementary School is the Ehukai Beach Park. It's here that the Banzai Pipeline separates the men from the boys (or if you ask some, the smart from the stupid). Known for its notorious waves which can swell to triple overhead in winter, it's every surfer's dream and nightmare. Even if experienced in water sports, it's preferable to venture in during Spring and Summer, when the waters are calmer. Review © 2007, Wcities |
 Scotland on the North Shore |
57-049 Kuilima Drive Honolulu, HI 96731 United States +1 808 293 8574 |
Combining award-winning design, a classic Scottish ambience and an exotic tropical location, this golf course has created a unique playing experience. Located on Oahus famous North Shore, it is convenient to Waikiki but still isolated enough to feel private. The course was designed by golf great, Arnold Palmer. In the center of the course is Punahoolapa Marsh, a designated wetlands preserve. It's next to the lovely Hilton Turtle Bay Resort. Green fees start at $90 for guests of the Hilton.

Neptune's Home Away from Home |

Surf n Sea is a staple on the North shore landscape, built in 1921 and housing the premiere surf shop since 1965, SurfnSea has it all. Surf gear and apparel for most ocean activities, not to mention tours, lessons, sales and rentals, plus plenty of souvenirs. They specialize in Surfing, Scuba Diving, Bodyboarding & Snorkeling. The look, feel, and location of the building makes it easy to envision the past. Surf legends and current top professionals from around the world have set foot inside this historic shop. To this day it sits alone on the World Famous Haleiwa coastline and you couldn't ask for a better place to find what you need for a great day at the beach. In the winter, ask about their prize patrol program where they give out a free sticker and you can win prizes if seen sporting the sticker around town. -Rex Davidson Review © 2007, Wcities |
