Surf Bar Waikiki
Cocktail bar
👍👍 We visited Surf Bar twice on our visit to Oahu! Chuck and Elise were such kind people. They took great care of us, told us local recommendations, and shared their lives with us. The menu drinks are fabulous, but Chuck made us a couple of off-menu drinks based on our preferences. The prices are high...

Round Top Forest Reserve
Nature preserve
👍 Great place for sightseeing. High thief area as stated on the signs. Surveillance does not help. The lookout is some 250ft from the parking lot, but it does not stop car break-ins. Don't leave anything in the car, that can look attractive.
