Your experience

Beautiful Colors of Hawaii Photo Tour

Oahu's east shore seems made for the camera, with turquoise water, bright skies, dramatic cliffs and sweeping mountain backdrops appearing at nearly every turn. This daytime photo tour follows a postcard-worthy route beyond Waikiki, offering beautiful scenery without the early start of a sunrise tour.

Photograph Diamond Head across the blue ocean, look out over Hanauma Bay and visit the Halona Blowhole, where waves may surge through an underground lava tube and send water high into the air. At Makapu'u Lookout, broad views stretch across windward Oahu, tall sea cliffs and two small offshore islands.

The tour also stops in Waimanalo for lunch. Cost of lunch not included in tour price.
