The Worlds Best Beaches - Waikiki

Waikiki Beach on the Hawaiian island of Oahu is one of the world's most famous and most beloved beaches. The two-mile long beach is known for its nice, warm water and waves that are perfect for surfers. It is also noted for its beautiful location under the Diamond Head Crater. The Waikiki strip has hotels and all the facilities that a vacationer could desire.

"The most famous beach on Oahu (and possibly in the world), Waikiki Beach lives up to the hype. Though the sections in front of major hotels can get crowded, the scene - a mix of local bathing beauties, Japanese surfers, and pink-roasted visitors is endlessly entertaining. The surf breaks are far from shore, so there's plenty of gentle water for swimming. And the options for pre- and post-beach drinks, dining, and shopping are numerous." (Waikiki.com)
