Honolulu, on the island of O'ahu, is the urban metropolis of the Aloha State. Here different cultures blend harmoniously, yet each retains its distinct character. Just 3 1/2 mi from downtown is the tourist mecca of Waikiki. Set on the sunny dry side of O'ahu, Waikiki provides a stunning setting along with the buzz of international hotel and shopping destinations.
