Hiking
One of the things that Hawaii is known for is amazing hikes, from coastal trails to trails that trek deep into the lush rainforests. There are a number of challenging hikes on Oahu, and even some very easy ones that show off the island. For the novice hiker, check out Manoa Falls Hike or Diamond Head Hike. Both are appropriate for all ages. For the more experience hiker, try Koko Head or Waimano Falls.

Shark Cage Diving
Head out from the North Shore of Oahu approximately 3 miles and find a shark cage waiting on the surface of the ocean. Enter the water and find yourself face to face with sharks! This thrilling dive is a pure adrenaline rush and getting this close to sharks in their world is an experience you won’t want to miss.

Stand-up Paddle Boarding
Much more of a leisure sport than surfing, SUP as it is commonly known as, is done in calm waters and allows you to be out on the ocean without having to worry about the waves. The boards are much easier to ride and you can paddle at your own speed. It is very common to see Hawaiian Green Seat Turtles coming up for air, and just being out on the calm Pacific Ocean is a relaxing adventure.

Snorkeling
Off of Oahu’s west coast, there are some great snorkeling spots, and Hanauma Bay is the go to spot for visitors to check out the colorful underwater world. The clear waters of Hawaii offer great visibility and give a glimpse at an array of tropical fish.

SCUBA Diving
Scuba diving in Hawaii is often considered some of the best in the world, with a ton of great dive spots scattered around the islands. The volcanic past creates an incredible underwater world and there are always surprises hiding in the crevices of the rock formations. There are also quite a few wreckage dive, allowing divers to explore shipwrecks and even World War II planes that crash landed into the ocean.
