Oahu Experiences

I'm on a horse, on a beach, on Oahu. Check out what it's like to go horseback riding on Oahu's North Shore, a peaceful place far away from the bustle of Honolulu.

A sunset cocktail cruise in Hawaii isn't just a must-do, it's a foregone conclusion. Everyone needs to unwind with their favorite drink on board a comfortable catamaran, so here's your best options to do so.

Another winter is upon us in Hawaii, and with it the return of kohola, the humpback whales that come every year to breed, calve, and raise their young in warm waters.
If you'd like to learn more about humpback whales and their habitats in Hawaii, check out our introduction to Hawaii whale watching post, where you can learn when the humpbacks visit, how long they usually stay, different ways to watch the whales, and how to pick a whale watching tour.

If you're looking for the top whale watching tours in Hawaii, you came to the right place! HawaiiActivities.com offers a variety of whale watching tours on Oahu, Maui, the Big Island, and even on Kauai.

Maira and I had the awesome opportunity to join Paul and Doug on their North Shore tour last Wednesday.

If you're not familiar with the North Shore Beach Bus, you should be: these guys provide the premier tour of the North Shore of Oahu, including multiple awesome beaches, a fun day paddling down a river, snorkeling at the famous Hanauma Bay, and even a short stop at Dole Plantation!

You can't go wrong with a sunset cruise in Waikiki, but there are ways to be more or less right, with "having an open bar" being easily the most righteous.

Going on a whale watch cruise in Honolulu is convenient and fun. While whales aren't guaranteed to show up, a fun time can still be had by all.

The crowd kept the beat that the drummer laid down as he stood up and made his way over to the cajon closer to the front of the stage.

As JC and Adrian, the guitarist and bassist kept the rhythm of the song going as Thierry, the percussionist, took a seat on the cajon and dropped back into time.

It sure gets five stars from me!

We were invited to the Star of Honolulu's dinner cruise to experience their top-level entertainment and 7-course dinner. The Star of Honolulu is Oahu's most popular cruise ship, going out every night of the week, and also doing morning whale watch cruises in the winter.
