What You WILL Find…
inHawaii Family Life offers down-to-earth, real-life experiences
and suggestions for traveling with your little and not-so-little ones.
We get it. We’ve traveled in all shapes and styles: solo, as a duo, with infants, (infants and) toddlers, teens, and even with larger family groups on a few multigenerational trips. (Thank goodness our toddler could nap at the same time as my Grandparents! 🤭)
Sometimes it’s not easy finding activities that can entertain everyone. Or how do we navigate activities to cover interests of preschoolers, elementary kids, teens, or college-aged kids?!
These are the questions we relentlessly google-searched too – how many tabs do you have open? – so we know that family-to-family recommendations are valuable tools while planning your Hawaii vacation, stay-cation, or even a trip to the beach!

Top Things To Do On Oahu, Hawaii
1. Swim in the world famous Waikiki beach
The world famous Waikiki beach is famous for a reason and if you have come with family members who don’t really swim, this will give you options for both the novice and the expert swimmer.
2. Walk up the Diamond Head trail
Check out the view from Diamond Head where it gives you a stunning 360-degree panoramic view of Waikiki, downtown Honolulu, stunning shoreline, and the Windward-side of Oahu.
3. Visit North Shore Beaches for the giant waves
Ok, this comes with a caveat, the giant waves of the North Shore only come in winter time, but if you happen to be here, pull up a chair and just watch those colossal 20~30 foot waves crash to the shore, you’ll see a spectacular show of the power of the ocean.
