ATV through Kualoa Ranch

Secret Island is on the East side of Oahu.  It's located near the town of Kailua.  It's a great place to have a beach day and avoid the crowds of Waikiki.  The water is super calm and the background makes you feel like you are in a Jurassic park movie, which filmed just up the road.  You can get tours and passes at Kualoa Ranch. There is a fee associated with visiting.

If you have the chance to kayak out to these coral reefs and are feeling adventurous, put on your snorkel gear and hop into the water. The barrier reef ...

Kahana Bay is the last public Ahupua’a on Oahu. The Ahupua’a is the traditional Hawaiian land division system. Each Ahupua’a contains a cross section of the island so that each slice of land meets the needs of the inhabitants by containing all resource zones necessary for subsistence.
