An attractive flamingo pond greets you at the entrance of this 42-acre municipal zoo in Waikiki. Rare wildlife inside the lush park includes the Hawaiian nene goose, Francois monkeys and Galapagos tortoises. There is a children's petting zoo with llamas and a retired milk cow. Just before, during, and after a full moon, the zoo's special guided twilight tour offers an uncommon glimpse of the habits of nocturnal animals; call or go online for more information.

Diamond Head

Also known as Lēʻahi, this crater of an extinct volcano got its name when Western explorers mistook calcite crystals they found there for diamonds. Framing the fabric of the island, the crater is riddled with a tracery of vents and volcanic remnants. The historic trail to the 761-foot (231.9 meter) summit starts inside the crater and is an easy, but steep, 0.8 mile (1.3 kilometers) hike to the top. Adorned with craggy corrugations and tufts of sun-bleached grass, Diamond Head affords astounding views of Oʻahu's charming landscape, including some exceptional views of its beaches and locales.

The Palace Galleries showcase jewels and regalia from the days of Hawaiʻian royalty. Guided tours are offered every 30 minutes and reservations are suggested.

Dine on a feast of steak and crab legs with a complimentary tropical cocktail.

Nuʻuanu Pali State Wayside

Nestled in the lush, tropical paradise of Hawaii, the Nu'uanu Pali State Wayside is a remarkable natural wonder with deep historical significance. The Nu'uanu Pali Lookout here is renowned for its panoramic views of the windward coast of Oahu. It was here in 1795 that King Kamehameha I achieved a decisive victory in his quest to unite the Hawaiian Islands. Visitors can explore this history through informative displays at the lookout. The refreshing winds and breezes that sweep through the area make it a pleasant place to stop and enjoy a moment of respite from the heat.

Famed for its beautiful horseshoe-shaped sandy beach and clear, calm turquoise waters, this natural marine sanctuary is home to thousands of colorful tropical fish. The waist-deep water inside the reef is perfect for novice snorkelers to explore. More experienced snorkelers might want to check with the lifeguard before venturing beyond to deeper waters to see sea turtles and other marine life. The Bay is least crowded in the early morning or late afternoon.

USS Bowfin Submarine Museum & Park

This Pearl Harbor memorial park is dedicated to World War II submarines and their valiant crews. The park takes its name from a particularly distinguished sub, the USS Bowfin SS-287.

Also visit the Battleship Arizona and Missouri memorials.

USS Arizona Memorial

On December 7, 1941, the battleship USS Arizona was sunk, taking 1100 sailors with it. In 1961, a solemn white monument was erected above the midsection of the ship. The deck of the Arizona lies now six feet (1.83 meters) below the surface of Pearl Harbor and is clearly visible from the monument. Take the shuttle launch from shore to the monument and view the dark shape of a once-great ship with its silent crew. Free guided tours are offered 8a-1p daily. Visit the Battleship Missouri Memorial afterward.
