10 Things You Must

1.

Swim in a waterfall

There are many waterfalls to see on Oahu, but my favorite is Waimea Falls. To get there, you take a short, paved walk through an arboretum, with gorgeous tropical flowers and exotic trees along the way. Once you get to the waterfall, you can go swimming in it! The water is usually pretty cold but how often do you get to swim right under a waterfall?! Totally worth it.

2.

Go on a Hike

One of the things that I love about Oahu is that even walking just a mile can bring you to waterfalls, mountains, breathtaking rocky coastlines, and 360-degree views. No matter your desire or fitness level, there is a hike or short walk for everyone. For shorter, less intense trails, try The Lighthouse Trail or Manoa Falls.

If you’re feeling more adventurous, try The Pillbox Trail or Diamond Head. Whatever you do, it will be breathtaking!
