Ala Moana Beach Park


Popular with everyone
1201 Ala Moana Boulevard
Honolulu, HI 96814
United States
This is one of those beaches that one can't help but stumble upon sooner or later. It's in downtown Honolulu, but that doesn't diminish its popularity with locals. Like the famous Kamaole Beaches in Kihei, this place is the site of constant frisbee games, beach parties and extended family picnics. The waves are good for swimming or bodyboarding, and the Hawaiian sun is out most days of the year, attracting crowds of sunbathers.

Ala Wai Yacht Harbor


Scenic downtown spot
1599 Ala Wai Boulevard
Honolulu, HI 96813
United States
While it's almost become too popular with yacht owners, and as is a result beginning to suffer from over-congestion, this harbor is a favorite scenic spot. Views of the Ala Wai Harbor are a coveted feature for downtown restaurants and hotels. From the harbor one can see the Diamond Head or the endless blue Pacific. If you want a little more action, head over to Kaiser's Bowl and watch the surfers do their thing. The Waikiki Trolley makes regular stops here.

Aloha Tower


Welcome to Honolulu!

Honolulu, HI 96813

This waterfront landmark is as much a symbol of Honolulu as Coit Tower is of San Francisco. Since 1925 the tower has welcomed people of all nations to Honolulu. It's an imposing structure, nearly 200 feet tall, but its Spanish architecture and bronze embellishments make it much more attractive than the average skyscraper. The recently refurbished Observation Deck is now open to visits (see hours below) and gives guided tour twice daily for both Japanese and English speakers. The wonderful Aloha Tower Marketplace is open daily.

This location is deemed a national U.S. Historic Landmark. The magnificent four-masted Falls of Clyde sailing ship is anchored alongside a wharf, and although it has been prohibited to visitors for safety reasons, the museum is definitely worth a trip. The permanent display will take you from the days of the early canoe-faring Polynesians to Captain Cook's "discovery" of the island chain, all the way up to the naval activities at present-day Pearl Harbor. You can peruse a sizable World War Two naval exhibit. Whaling exhibits are also featured, including a massive humpback whale skeleton. The museum is located next to the Aloha Tower Marketplace. Admission is $7.50 for adults, $4.50 for children ages 4-12, and free for children under 4.

Honolulu Hale


City Hall
530 South King Street
Honolulu, HI 96817
United States
+1 808 523 2489
This graceful pink, tile-roofed California-Spanish mission style structure built in 1929 is Honolulu's City Hall. 'Hale' (pronounced HA-lay) means "house" in Hawaiian. The open interior courtyard is patterned after the Bargello, a 13th century palace in Florence, Italy. Public space in the high-ceilinged lobby is often used for art exhibits, concerts and other public events. Between mid-December and the beginning of January, huge statues of Santa and Mrs. Claus in Hawaiian attire, penguins, reindeer and other winter decorations cavort across the expansive lawn and fountains. Admission is free.

Honolulu Harbor


Historical hot spot
Honolulu Waterfront
Honolulu, HI 96813
United States
Since the first days of Honolulu's European colonization, this port has been a hub of commercial activity in the Pacific. Steamships, sailing boats, whaling ships and seagoing merchants choked the waters just offshore, and Hawaiian boys regularly swam out to meet and greet the incoming vessels. Today, you'll see more pleasure cruisers than anything else, but the Harbor remains in the center of everything. Regular Boat Days bring back the festive tradition of the old days, when full-scale celebrations were held upon a ship's arrival and departure. The Aloha Tower stands as a majestic beacon just behind the harbor. Restaurants, condominium complexes and shops line the waterfront, and thousands of people visit for business and pleasure each day.

This small harbor and park area is a favorite with fishing boats and pleasure cruisers. Voyager Submarines and Ali'i Kai Sport Fishing are two of the notable marine activity companies with a home base at this port. There is also a fish market, a high-tech research facility, a small park and a dolphin center on the premises. The area has a rather gruesome history; in pre-contact Hawai'i, it was used as a human sacrifice spot. (This is not a fact that is commonly shared in the tourist guides or cruise ship brochures.)

Everything from family luau to canoe races to romantic dates happens on this little outcropping of land. It's actually a peninsula at the end of the much larger Ala Moana Beach Park. Tourists visit this place to watch the sun set, jog or walk the shoreline, or take pictures of the gorgeous scenery. Locals swim, play football or Frisbee, and 'talk story' (Pidgin for gossip) on sunny afternoons. Festivals often take place here, and occasionally, dramatic troupes stage outdoor plays or concerts.

Thomas Square


Long history and lots of events
925 South Beretania
At King Street
Honolulu, HI 96813
United States
All kinds of events, large and small, are held at this small downtown park. While certainly not the largest of Hawaii's parks, it is the oldest of Honolulu's community parks, and has long been the site of community gatherings and festivities. Events such as the Pacific Handcrafters Annual Christmas Craft Fair and the Intertribal Pow Wow are held here annually. The park is across from the Honolulu Academy of Art in the heart of the city.

Never has a beach been as fabled as Waikiki. Since the 1950s, this beach has been a tourist destination extraordinaire. While much of it has been eroded, trampled by millions of feet, or encroached upon by towering skyscrapers, hints of its original beauty can still be seen in the crashing waves and the warm sand. Come night time, the hipsters strut their clubwear on the beachwalk, and lovers find peaceful little nooks under the cover of sweeping palm trees.
