Diamond Head

Hike

The quintessential Oahu tourist hike. It was pretty easy, but the views did not disappoint.

Drink

No alcohol. I was driving around a bunch this day trying to see more sites so I did not drink here. Plus it was really crowded with tourists. I prefer relaxing in the peaceful outdoors and collecting my thoughts while sipping on a drink. Unless, I am partying with friends, but that’s not this blog 😉

Nifty Tunnel
Nifty tunnel you go through. Diamond Head was fortified during World War II to help defend Honolulu.
View Into the Crater
View down into the crater. Most of these hikes were up old volcanic craters. Here the tourist center and start of the hike is actually inside the crater.
View of Waikiki
Incredible view of Waikiki.
Me On Diamond Head
Me on Diamond Head. I was a sweaty mess on most of these hikes. I am used to the Utah deserts.
