Very touristy but also a lot of fun. Great restaurants and bars . One of the liveliest places on Oahu. As a visitor this will probably be your main place to stay on the island .
This was an awesome beach . They have a section where the warm clean sea water is only waist height for 60 yards into it. Seems to have decent surf and everything you need near by as well .
Turquoise water, surfing and gorgeous weather make this a must see. Can be quite crowded on the weekends
Sunsets are amazing -get a spot with a trop drink in hand well before the sun goes down. You won't be disappointed! Daytime snorkeling is great in the smooth waters, & the people-watching is fun too!
Great great beach ! It's crowded , but you can definitely find a nice spot away from the crowd. Take some surfing lessons and enjoy yourself! Aloha ????
Life's a beach , why not make it Waikiki? The Surfing , Sunning, and world class Shopping make the Waikiki neighborhood a great place to live. Why wait any longer... Read more
Main beach in Oahu, a must for any visitor, but don’t expect a calm beach where you can rest, unless you come early in the morning. Crowded and very agitated place where you see the sunset .
Awesome beach but extremely crowded . I'd recommend water shoes to protect your feet from the volcanic rock.
spend an afternoon near one of the big beach bars listening to live music while you jump waves thirty yards out in waist deep water
Reserve your spot on Waikiki Beach with Waikiki Beach Services @WBSHawaii! You can rent a set of umbrella and two chairs for only $40 all day! Cheapest deal on Waikiki Beach! In front of Royal Hwn
Gentle seas that stretch out for miles. One of the best spots to practice surfing . You can rent chairs, umbrellas and boards right on the beach for reasonable prices.
The evening sunset is a feast for all your senses.
It is such a beautiful day and I love doing my walks at this time in the morning because it's less crowded and you can really enjoy God's creation. I am blessed to have this when I'm home in Hawaii.
The beach , sidewalks, and restaurants are all super crowded right now. Be careful of the rocks that collect at the edge of the tide and the water was a little gross because of how crowded it was.
We went on a beautiful day and saw the sunset . This time of year is not as crowded as I heard it can get. Many hotels and restaurants nearby where you can grab a drink or food. Water felt nice!
Really famous beach :-) sure, its really nice, but If you go outside the city , there are simply wonderful beaches , much more better than this one and less crowded .
Don't miss Hilton's FIREWORKS on Friday evening starts around 7:40PM. Walk toward west (away from Diamond Head), pass RumFire (bar ) on the beach . 金曜日(7:40PM)の夜はヒルトンからの花火があります!
Waikiki beach is probably one of the busiest beaches in Honolulu district. There is much to see here. A tourist magnet. The sunset is always a highlight. Should be seen and experienced.
Amaaaazing beach !!! Weird sand
One of most famous tourist traps in the planet. While the beach is quite OK, the over developed already destroyed it. Chaotic and full with tourists . There are many better beaches on Oahu.
Can't go to Honolulu without spending a day at Waikiki. Also a good place to find some surfing lessons.
It was first time since about 4 years ago. Waikiki Beach is always beautiful. The picture is a sunset that seems to be saying goodbye.
Mickey's surf school providing the highest level of quality surf lessons to small groups a real bargain for your money. Ask about social media discount review promo.
son wasbased Waikiki Beach and enjoyed it always know he wishes he never came back, west coast or east coast, he has many regrets, which we warned him about, but he didnt listen to us of course
Avoid swimming at Waikiki Beach/Kahala Beach/and South Shore when there is a strong stormy leeward wind (Kona Wind) coming from the South or South West. You will be swimming in raw human sewerage.
Really nice sand and water. There are lots of tourists in the area so expect people to be in your photos.
Love this beach . Can get pretty crowded but has some great surf spots and a nice sheltered area of the ocean for calmer water.
A little bit of everything here at the beach . From sand, surf , to beach bars and catamarans. The perfect place to visit for a touristy time.
Beautiful view and perfect water. If you want a umbrella, bring $10. Worth it if you burn eat ;)
If you want a beach and sun for a few days, this is it. No need to rent a car. Lots of good hotels a block off the beach .
Sunset is amazing here.
One of the most well-known beaches on the planet, this 2-mile stretch of white sand and calm turquoise blue ocean is located on the south shore of Oahu. Read more
Tune to 105 KINE FM for the traditional Hawaiian soundtrack to the fireworks show . After, try RumFire's Speakeasy party at the Sheraton. – Green Guide Editor
Don't forget to watch the sunset at the east part. It's really wonderful. What a view
The Southern side from the Sheraton is the place to be day or night. Easy to enjoy the sun and surf...not to mention cocktails at Duke's or the Beach Bar
One of the best beaches in the world for surf beginners and occasional surfers. Long, long easy waves ! The beach is nothing special.
Avoid the daily $50 chair rental/reservation fee from Waikiki hotels and rent a chair from a local vendor for $30 per week!
Crowded , noisy , windy and "surfy"; this is a place of contrasts... A narrow strip of sand with skyscrapers , hotels , malls , restaurants and boutiques meters away. There's always something, 24/7.

Very, very, very nice beach . The sunsets are beyond beautiful to watch here.
Go to see beautiful sunset from the beach . Please check the sunset time and arrive there 15 minutes before the sunset .
This is a total tourist spot, but a great beach to go to if your hotel is in Waikiki. They have places to rent anything you need from boogie boards , fins, etc.
Perfect spot to learn how to surf ! We booked lessons through Waikiki Shore Beach Services, they were great.
Learn how to surf , stand-up paddling or go on Outrigger Canoe Ride with Waikiki Beach Services! Look for the Purple Canoes ! Check in at the Royal Hawaiian Pool Deck information kooks!
You can lay on the sand now, as well as go into the water.
Just minutes away from UHM, this beach is popular with both visitors and residents. You can swim , surf , snorkel , dive, people-watch, or just bask in the sun (don't forget to use sunscreen !).
Located in idyllic Waikiki, Hawaii, Castles is a second reef break, and is the South Shore’s most famous surf break even though it only becomes rideable when wave heights reach 10ft or higher.
Not to be missed, but the birdsongs just before sunset you have to listen! - Rene T.
Went during a windy and rainy day but still a nice walk around the area and beautiful. Would like to visit again when it is sunny! - Suprachibby
Swimming to the buoy and back a few times is a nice little workout! Plus you can usually see a good assortment of sea life :) - Seaira Kersch
Breakfast buffet is really yummy. Fresh fruit, omlettes and great view on the beach. - DFB
Tiki burger is new an has great jalapeño burgers ! - Darrel Anderson
The beach here is great! Lots of shops in the vicinity too. - Elan
