Hawaii | Oahu 4D3N Itinerary - All You Need to Know

*Okay, maybe not ALL - but here's my tried-and-tested trip after extensive research! Spent 8 days in Hawaii (Oahu + Kauai).* 🌴 Day 1: Arrival + Waikiki Beach Afternoon: Hit Waikiki Beach immediately (just go!). Lunch: Korean food truck near hotel - Galbi Short Rib was 🔥. Dinner: Hau Tree (book outdoor "Lani" area in advance - insta-worthy but food was meh). Hotel: Hyatt Waikiki Resort & Spa (Ocean Front, Diamond Tower). 🚗 Day 2: East Coast Loop Manoa Falls: Like Jurassic Park (mosquito hell though - we bailed halfway). Nuʻuanu Pali Lookout: Epic views of windward coast (quick stop). Lanikai Beach: Gorgeous but parking nightmare (cops patrol ticketing). Scenic stops: Pull over anytime on return route! Food: Breakfast: Island Vintage Coffee (best loco moco of our trip - pre-order via QR code to skip lines!). Lunch: Off the Hook Poke Market (overrated - ginger flavor = dumpling filling vibes). Dinner: Gyū-Kaku (turns out it's just Japanese BBQ chain - hunger = best sauce). Coffee: Kai Coffee (below hotel) - signature half-sweet = perfection. 🌊 Day 3: North Shore Adventure Byodo-In Temple: Serene (but the graveyard entrance was unexpectedly stunning). Kualoa Ranch E-Bike Tour: 2.5hrs - fun & easy (movie site galore!). North Shore Drives: Laniakea Beach (turtle spotting)/Sunset Beach (famous crooked palm). Food: Breakfast: Heavenly Island Lifestyle (rude staff + mediocre food - skip). Lunch: Kualoa Ranch cafe - huge shrimp plates. Dinner: Foodland (local supermarket poke - solid!). 🛳️ Day 4: Farmers Market + Pearl Harbor KCC Farmers Market: Saturday only (closes at 11AM - go early!). Pearl Harbor: USS Arizona: $1 reservation required (nps.gov). USS Missouri: Walk-up tickets available. Pro Tip: Airport is 15 mins away - perfect for afternoon flights! #Oahu #Hawaii #TravelGuide 🌺
