Waikiki is perfect for doing as much or as little as you feel like. Spend your days lounging or strolling along world-famous Waikiki Beach, drinking in the Hawaii sunshine.

Or immerse yourself in Oahu’s rich cultural history by visiting ‘Iolani Palace, the official residence of the Hawaiian Kingdom’s last two monarchs — King Kalakaua, who built the Palace in 1882, and his sister and successor, Queen Lili‘uokalani.
