Diamond Head State Monument: On the way to stop number one, you’ll see your first Volcano, and this stop will give you a taste of what’s to come. This will be your first taste of the epic scenery this island has to offer. See the Southside of the island from up above and marvel at the skill of all the surfers you will see.

Koko Head Crater: Cruise by Volcano number two of this trip and learn about its history. This Volcano is also now a popular hike, but this is not for your average hiker. Look closely, and you can see people hiking up the 1048 steps to the top.

Eternity Beach: See from above, one of the coolest hideouts on the island. This beach has been the filming sites for numerous movies, TV shows, and even music videos. Keep an eye out for turtles and Hawaiian monk seals, as well.

Halona Blowhole: Check out this amazing oceanic geyser created thousands of years ago from an old lava tube. When the waves hit the blowhole at the right angle, it can shoot up in the air over 50 feet!

Sandy Beach Park: Cruise by one of the world’s most dangerous beaches. This beach is not for the faint of heart. Many people have gotten seriously hurt at this beach. You will see daredevils body surfing the scary waves at this beach daily.

Waimanalo: See one of the best uncrowded beaches on the island and stop to get some snacks and drinks before you continue your adventure to the north shore.

Oahu’s Windward Coast, Hawaii: Drive through the windiest and wettest spot of the island. See how lush and beautiful this island truly is as you literally drive through a tree tunnel.

Tropical Farms Outlet: Sample some amazing Macadamia nuts, coffee, hot sauces, and more. This stop is packed with opportunities to take some amazing pictures.

Polynesian Cultural Center drives by: Learn about one of Oahu’s best attractions and top Luau.

Laie Hawaii Temple & Visitors Center drives by: See the first Mormon Temple built outside the continental US.

Tanaka’s Shrimp: Stop for lunch and try Oahu’s world-famous shrimp. Some say it’s the best shrimp they have ever tasted in their entire lives! If shrimp doesn’t tickle your fancy, they also have amazing chicken or “to die for” veggie noodles.

North Shore: Cruise past all the world-famous surf beaches like Sunset, Pipeline, and Waimea Bay and learn all about the big wave surf season.

Puaʻena Point Beach Park: This beach has the highest probability of seeing our Hawaiian green sea turtles on the island. Go for a swim, snorkel, or just hang out under a tree and enjoy this beautiful beach.

Dole Plantation: This is what you have been waiting for!! Try the non-dairy pineapple ice cream that is called the Dole Whip! Get it in a cup or a cone, or try it our favorite way, which is the Dole Whip float! The float is when they put the soft serve over fresh squeezed pineapple juice and give you a straw and a spoon! SO GOOD!

Green World Coffee Farms: Try numerous coffee or tea samples grown on the island, or go to the coffee bar and order whatever your heart desires.
