Don't do this, it's just a swap meet of cheap crap you probably won't ever use/wear and don't need.

Unless you like stuff like that.

Rock jumping at Waimea

Zaphod

7/18/18 8:54pm

So much fun.

BengalCougar

7/18/18 8:56pm

But only in the summer. Winter can get hairy. Also the cliff divers up Waimea

Zaphod

7/18/18 8:58pm

Better yet ride a one wheeler off the cliff! Instead of jumping. AMIRIGHT? 😉

Here is where you need to go as first timers.... Pearl Harbor, PCC, Waimea bay

kotacoug

Already some good suggestions, I will add Waimea Bay and Waimea falls to the list. Go to the Moana Surfrider...

BengalCougar

7/18/18 8:56pm

Add parasailing to the list, it's a lot of fun.

If you do Pearl Harbor, spend a little extra and go to the Battleship Missouri.
