Waikiki, the word is magic. Say it and images of swaying palm trees, Diamond Head, a 2-mile stretch of white sand beach and the crystal clear waters of the blue Pacific come to mind. Even if you've never been here you've probably seen movies, television shows and magazines about Waikiki Beach, with flickering Tiki torches, beautiful girls dancing the hula and the sound of slack key guitars. It is a word probably recognizable around the globe.
While Waikiki is all that, it is also the host to over five millions visitors a year and has a wide variety of hotels from 2- to 5-star, shopping and restaurants of every cuisine possible. Waikiki is well defined, with a canal on one side, the ocean on the other and parks at each end. The beach is where most residents and tourists learn to surf with its gentle waves and many beach boys who can teach you how to stand up on that board. A short distance away is Diamond Head, where you can hike to the top from the crater floor for spectacular views of the reefs that surround the Waikiki Beach area. You can also visit the Honolulu Zoo and Aquarium in Kapiolani Park, or take in a concert at the bandstand in the park on Sundays.
