View of Waikiki from Diamond Head Pillbox
Hike down to Rock Bridge. This slab of lava rock sits right outside of Hanauma Bay, and is the home to Rock Bridge. It's a moderately tough hike to get here, but is well worth it.
Hanauma Bay: popular snorkeling beach. Great place for beginners. This is also the starting point of the hike to Rock Bridge.
Koko Crater on the left is a tuff cone. Hanauma Bay was formed when the ocean breached a tuff cone.
Lanikai Beach. No words to describe this beauty.
Outrigger teams practice at this beach. The two islands are swimmable distances from this beach, and it was a goal of mine to swim out and back. The desire quickly subsided when a co-worker who's an Oahu native and surfer said, "No, brah. Tiger sharks hang out there."
