Waikiki Beach

　　Introduction    Waikiki Beach is probably the most famous beach in the world and the most typical Hawaiian beach in the minds of most travelers. The beach area stretches from Kapiolani Park at the foot of Diamond Head in the east to the Ala Wai Yacht Harbor in the west, spanning one mile in length, and sees up to 25,000 visitors daily.

　　The heart of the beach area is the stretch between the Royal Hawaiian Hotel and the Aston Waikiki Beach Tower, featuring fine white sand, swaying coconut trees, and a skyline of high-rise buildings, totaling about three to four hundred meters in length. This section offers calm, open waters, making it an ideal spot for family holidays. For those who enjoy livelier activities, head to the beach area between the Sheraton Princess Kaiulani and the Waikiki Hotel, where you can go boating, surfing, or take an evening stroll along the shore to admire the spectacular sunset.    Moving inland from the shore, you’ll find the broader “Waikiki,” home to countless shops, restaurants, and shopping centers. Kalakaua Avenue (also known as the Beach Walk) boasts Waikiki’s most luxurious hotels and shops, lined with neatly spaced coconut trees that create a truly enchanting scene.
