Soak up Hawaii’s island charm while relaxing on the sandy shores of Waikiki Beach. Located on the south shore of Honolulu, the beach borders the well-known neighborhood of Waikiki, once a playground for Hawaiian royalty. Known for its pristine white sand, bathtub temperatures, and spectacular views of the Diamond Head tuff cone, the beach serves as a popular place for watersports and sunbathing year-round. Try your hand at riding the waves with a surf lesson, or take a stroll along the boardwalk, where you will find a variety of oceanside dining options and street vendors.

The water was crystal clear and the beach was very clean! I was surprised how little sand there was here but I was here for the water and waves! Snorkeling was awesome just beyond the rock wall...

This is a very busy beach, but also beautiful. There is an abundance of things to do here and swimming is very safe. Loved every second of it.
