Waikiki, home to one of the most famous beaches in the world, is a district on the island of Oahu in Hawaii. Because of its fame, Waikiki Beach (which is actually a series of beaches) is also among the most crowded. Each beach caters to different tastes, from learning how to surf and snorkel to swimming and hanging out with family and friends. And let’s not forget, no Hawaiian trip is complete without attending at least one luau, in which you can experience hula dancing, live music, fire dancing, and conch shell ceremonies. Other places of interest in Waikiki include Kapiolani Park, the Waikiki Shell amphitheater and Honolulu Zoo, and the famous hike up Diamond Head—a strenuous trail that rewards persevering hikers with an unforgettable view of the entire city and the surrounding blue Pacific.
