Fun Things to Do on Oahu’s North Shore

Everyone knows that the North Shore of Oahu is a place that you must visit while vacationing on the island. The food trucks alone are enough to draw travelers from all over the island, and in the winter, the big waves put on a mesmerizing show, and during the summer, the waves are non-existent and the beaches are the place to be.

There are so many fun things to do on the North Shore, giving an escape from the city life and offering great options to enjoying a day on the island’s most famous shore.

Stretching from Haleiwa to Kahuku, the North Shore is a scenic stretch, and the most famous beaches in Hawaii are found here. Many locals know how to make the most of a day in the country, and having fun can be quite affordable. Just sitting on the beach and enjoying the views, with the occasional dip in the ocean makes for a great day. Stop by a local grocery store for snacks, the shrimp trucks in Haleiwa or Kahuku, or head into Haleiwa at a restaurant for quick bite. The beach is the place to be on the North Shore.

If you are looking for activities to try, surf lessons are always popular, and can be taken either in Haleliwa, or at the Turtle Bay Resort. Both places are great options, with easy to ride waves that make learning possible, and teachers that know exactly what they’re doing. If surfing isn’t in your plans, you can try Stand-Up Paddle in Haleiwa Bay.

And for the daring, a North Shore Shark Cage Adventure Tour is the thing to do. Head out from the harbor in Haleiwa for a shark cage and the chance to stare into the eyes of the most feared predator in the ocean. This tour is a thrill a minute, and will be one of the most heart pounding adventures you can take.

Thrill seekers can also skydive on the North Shore, and really, what better place to jump from an airplane that the Hawaiian Islands. On the way back to Earth, you’ll have incredible views of the island, and will have a great story to share when you return home.

The North Shore is an incredible part of Oahu, and finding fun things to do is easy, affordable, and can either be carefree or very daring. Whatever you choose, get ready for fun and a day you will not forget while visiting Oahu.
