The most famous beach in the world, Waikiki Beach, is found here in Honolulu. A two mile stretch of white sand, it has had a recent face lift with nice waterfall features and grassy berms. Of all the Honolulu beaches, it is the prime spot to see and be seen in and a popular place for swimming and surfing lessons.

Nonetheless, there are many lovely and lesser well known beaches around Honolulu. Just west of Waikiki is the Ala Moana Beach Park, a very popular spot with 76 acres of activities. This is a man made sandy beach and most prefer to swim, wade and sunbathe. If you swim, do watch out for strong currents even at low tide. There are food concessions, lifeguard towers and facilities for tennis and softball.

by Ted Felber

Fondly described as an ethnic melting pot, Honolulu’s charm lies in its multicultural mix which has produced some of the best and most interesting food. You can go posh and dine on Hawaiian regional cuisine at swanky restaurants in Waikiki or dive into family-friendly and affordable ethnic food just a few blocks away. You can also play safe with well known national chains such as Senor Frogs and the Cheesecake factory. Honolulu restaurants caters to all appetites.

Honolulu residents love to eat out because they are too busy to cook at home, and because it is hard to reproduce the wonderful ethnic tastes at home. A family-friendly restaurant earns its reputation not just through the presence of good food and high chairs, it also offers inexpensive dining in a friendly atmosphere and an extensive menu that appeals to all generations of diners.

by Ted Felber

Each of the Hawaiian islands is special. Each has its special draw and a different way of life. Certainly, there is nothing like Oahu, which has not only an exciting urban vibe in Honolulu but also a slower life in the country along its north and windward coasts. But one thing is for sure. The Oahu nightlife is hot, varied and exciting and picks up speed when the sun sets.

Honolulu Beachfront Bars

Beachfront bars at Waikiki offer ample opportunities to view the glorious Hawaiian sunsets. House Without A Key at the splendid Halekulani Hotel was immortalized in a 1925 Charlie Chan novel.

by Ted Felber

With trendy designer drinks, microbrews, dance club themes, happening interiors, and night time art events, Honolulu nightclubs demonstrate that Hawaii offers more than just fun in the sun.

From trendy spots in Chinatown, nouveau venues in popular hotels, upscale national chains and fabulously over-the-top faux tiki bars, Honolulu after dark is experiencing a revival.

There’s a particular draw to a brewpub that pipes more than 100 ice cold beers through five miles of metal tubing. The proof is in the enthusiastic patrons that wait up to an hour every weekend just to get into brew chain Yard’s House on the Waikiki Beachwalk.

Join in with the buzzing throngs of twenty and thirty-somethings as they taste sampler beer six packs, or try one of more than 40 different specialty martinis between each delicious appetizer.
