Heading their for vacation at the end of the month. Heading there with my wife. Was hoping for some feedback on where to go. We like it all and would like to do the tourist things.
From my experience; everything in Hawaii is beautiful for the most part.
My least favorite was actually Waikiki beach. It is way more touristy and crowded then most areas in Hawaii. It's pretty much like any other city with the exception of the gorgeous beach being nearby. Nonetheless, still a beautiful place, but I would recommend exploring the areas in north Oahu.
Pearl Harbor - A must do experience (Arizona Memorial, Battleship Missouri, Bowfin and the Air Museum)
Helicopter tour - I have a friend that manages a company
Atlantis submarine - People seem 50-50 on the experience
Volcano tour - No active ones on Oahu
Beaches - North Shore Beaches, Hanauma Bay and Sandy Beach
Luau - The better one would be at the Polynesian Cultural Center (On the north shore)
