More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The sun lowers like a slow shutter over West Oahu as you step aboard a 46-foot yacht at Ko Olina Marina. Salty air moves through the cockpit; the crew greets you and pops a bottle of Prosecco while the boat slips away from the dock. Lounging areas and bean bags catch the last light; off the port bow, the coastline unspools—lava-to-sand ridges giving way to resort lagoons and reef-lines where dolphins thread the water.
