My Island.
I love Waikiki. It is the most happening place on Oahu and has a style and vibrancy that’s not duplicated anywhere else in the islands. Waikiki is iconic. You never have to say “Waikiki, Hawaii.” The world knows where Waikiki is.
If Rodeo Drive makes Beverly Hills and Wall Street makes New York, then Kalakaua Avenue makes Waikiki. Within this one-mile stretch are wondrous and diverse attractions that lure visitors and residents alike. Once you’re here, something magical takes hold of your spirit and energy, and keeps you entranced for days (and nights).
Dynamic Waikiki is ever evolving, adding new surprises and discoveries along the way. It helps to have a personal local guide. That’s where I come in. Let me show you the best of Waikiki and Oahu’s events, activities, nightlife, dining and shopping. Follow the sun to paradise.
