Aloha! This 7 day itinerary is a great way to spend your first vacation in Oahu. If you're staying in Waikiki like we did, you'll still have plenty of time to travel across the island and explore Honolulu, Central Oahu, The North Shore, and the Windward Coast!

This itinerary includes all activities during my vacation to Oahu in March 2024. If you find this itinerary helpful, tips are always welcome and appreciated :) Mahalo!

Diamond Head, Honolulu, HI, USA

Top 7 hiking trails to visit in Honolulu, Hawaii 

Tantalus Lookout - Puu Ualakaa State Park

The Pu'u 'Ualaka'a State Wayside Park is open from 7am - 6:45pm. The road leading up to the park will bring you to a picnic area and the Tantalus Lookout. There is limited parking but you are able to walk to the lookout from the picnic area if the parking lot is full. 

Tantalus Lookout Offers gorgeous views of Honolulu and information about the history of Oahu. This is a great spot to stretch your legs and take in the beauty of the island.

Amazing lookout point for sunset! Easy to get to by car or uber. If you stay late you will see the stars and the sky line of the city. I think it the park closes before dark so you have to leave but there are a lot of parking spots along the way down.

Great sunset and picnic spot! Can get a little crowded on the weekends. Watch for when the gates to the parking lot close.

Scenic lookout featuring striking views of the Diamond Head volcano cone & the Waikiki skyline.

It's a great option for a quick hike or a picnic with a view.
