Sightseeing

One of the best snorkeling places on Oahu, and just minutes from Villa Laule'a! It's best to get there early before the crowds and when the water is calmest for the best snorkeling. Pick a sunny morning for best underwater visibility.

A drive to the North Shore is a must on Oahu. Turn Left (East) on the highway as you leave Villa Laulea to experience the greatest views, and come back through Central Oahu after enjoying dinner in the historic beach town of Haleiwa.

Food scene

Great local craft beers and wonderful food in a beautiful, fun setting. You can get special beers here only available at the restaurant, including tasting flights. The food is delightful. Their seafood is my favorite.

If you love Thai food, you have to try this charming and excellent restaurant right in Hawaii Kai. It's a local favorite for special occasions, but it's not that fancy. Experience Hawaii's own version of Thai--you'll love it!

Favorite Beaches

Skip the crowds at Lanikai and head straight to Kalama Beach Park if you want to experience the beauty of Kailua. Nice showers and decent changing rooms. If you want flatter water, you can go to Kailua Beach Park instead, but be prepared for crowds there.

Spectacular beach! Calm in the summer, but wild surfing waves in the winter. You can swim there when it's calm, or watch the exciting surfing displays in the big waves. A must see when you do your drive around the island.

Perfect turquoise water on a long sandy beach. Nice medium waves for body surfing. But be sure to check the Jellyfish Calendar online and avoid it on risky days. There are only a few risky days each month. Better to go to Kahala or Waikiki on those days.
