1. HANAUMA BAY NATURE PRESERVE

This curved bay east of Waikiki is postcard-perfect. Tall palms wave gently in the breeze, turquoise waters great for  swimmers and snorkelers, colorful tropical fish in abundance along the reef. This is THE BEST protected cove if you are new to scuba diving or snorkeling with a diverse population of marine life and a large, rich coral reef. The bay floor is actually the crater of an ancient volcano.

2. HALONA BLOWHOLE

You’ll have to climb down a rocky cliff to get to the pretty, usually uncrowded beach. But the water can be rough and dangerous. The blowhole is a lava tube under the water and at the perfect height for waves to be driven into it , where wave action causes compressed water to shoot high into the air. Plenty of turtles to see in the bay.   

3. LAIE BEACH PARK

This pretty, unmarked beach is worth a stop if you’re visiting the Polynesian Cultural Center. White sandy beach with waves year-round  Or walk north past the old pier pilings to a sheltered area, so calm it’s named Bathtub Beach.
