I generally take my holidays when I don't have to compete in the rat race trying to get from point A to B I try to avoid July and August at the height of the rat race and take the calmer months like June, sept and March. Less stress and way more fun

I am a little concerned as Its shark week and I was just watching Sharkageddon about the increase of shark attacks in Hawaii. it's been a few days since you have been online I'm worried that a tiger shark has gotten you. Please post some awesome pictures of your trip soon but if I tiger got you thanks once more for donating the forest fire digi

Waikiki Aquarium and Zoo are close to the beach, Diamondhead Crater, Polynesian Cultural Center are all good. We took a full day bus tour of the island which had lots of interesting stops and the tour guides are usually native Hawaiians so they give you a lot of great info. Pearl Harbor is must see also. Go to a luau one night as well. Oh, and see if you can find an ABC store!

ABC lol
If you like snorkeling, go to hanauma bay.
http://www.hanauma-bay-hawaii.com/

You can take a bus (cheap). Go early in the morning and ask the driver when the last bus leaves. (important). Its very busy there, the snorkeling is better earlier than later.
As well, on the way back, ask the bus driver to let you know where the costco is, if you have a card. Cheap booze. Cheaper than duty free. Or ABC lol a close second.
