More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The sand is warm beneath your feet and the trade winds tug at the canvas overhead as you settle into two low lounge chairs facing Diamond Head. From the strip of beach in front of the Royal Hawaiian, the shoreline opens in a long, polished arc where surfers peel out of the coral reef and paddleboarders skim the flats. The umbrella sets a private frame around the view — sun, surf and a steady Hawaiian horizon.
