Overview

This full-day bus tour around Oahu lasts about 8 to 10 hours and includes hotel pickup and drop-off. The trip starts with a visit to the Amelia Earhart Lookout, offering views over the ocean. Next, the tour stops at a notable rock formation and blowhole, followed by a beach known for its strong shore breaks and soft sands. The route passes the island's easternmost point, rising 647 feet above the sea, before stopping in Waimanalo town to visit a local souvenir shop. The tour continues to Mokolii, also called Chinaman’s Hat for its distinctive shape. Afterward, there is an hour of snorkeling at a North Shore beach where participants can see turtles, spinner dolphins, and various marine life. Local fruit stands provide fresh produce along the way. The tour also visits several famous surf spots, including a location known for barreling waves, a popular surfing mecca, and a site with 60-foot winter waves that hosts the Eddie Aikau Competition. A tropical macadamia nut farm on the North Shore is next, with a 60-minute stop. Then the group visits Pua'ena Point, also known as Turtle Beach, for 30 minutes.
