Diamond Head Divers
Look them up, they will take you on an "introductory" dive (20-25' of water) if you are not a PADI certified diver already. If you are, there are many, many excellent dive sites right off of Waikiki, sunken freighters, even a WW II US Coursair. The best dives are at the limit (110-120' of water) for a certified recreational diver:yes:.You will see sea turtles, moray eels and lots of fish. Also do not miss Hanama Bay on the lower east coast of Oahu, you can rent snorkel gear right from the beach, but NO smoking there, it is a state park, many tropical fish all in water 5' deep. All the replies including mine are assuming you will be staying on Oahu. Keep going east and follow the coast around to the "Blow Hole", pretty cool see the waves shoot water up 30' in the air through the hole in the cured lava rock. Diamond head, nuff said. Moose MacGilicuties is still open I think, but watch out for the Mahoo's (DUDES dressed like chicks:eek2::eek2::nono

. I heard that the Irish Rose is now closed-Damn Shame-that was my personal favorite. Sugar Bar in Haleiwa is definately worth finding, it is a LONG way from the typical tourist bar. Stop on the windward side north of China Mans Hat if you see the Shrimp Shack (Box Van) on the side of the raod for the BEST Hawaiin Tiger Prawn shrimp and rice on the island. Get dinner and drinks at Duke's Restaurant in Waikiki, its right on the beach east of the pink hotel, great atmosphere with all the eye candy you need:yes:. Oh if you rent a jeep make sure that they didn't disconect the 4 wheel drive if you want to off road on the eastern shore or North Shore Kaena Point, I humbly speak from experience:helpsmilie:. The local are good peolpe just respect the fact that they were there first. One more thing--towards the west shore there is Paradise Lagoon Lua, they will pull the pig out of the in-ground fire pit and serve you THE best pulled pork. Have fun and be safe!!! We are waiting for your post with pictures upon your return!!
