    As a person living in oahu, i would say that this is the absolute best video for recommendations. Even the tourist places you recommened are actually worth visiting and im glad you left out the ones that are not worth visiting. Please make more videos like this!

    Wow great tips Alvin! Been dreaming of visiting Oahu and watching this is just very helpful! I always think that travels are made easier when you have the best travel gears and essentials too. The bento bag from Nomad Lane is my best carry-on bag for travels like this. Thought I'd share it with you guys too!

      Make sure you go to the Byodo Temple! Get the bird/fish food from the gift shop. The birds and swans will eat it right out of your hand!!! 😇

    Hey Alvin, I originally from Kahala in Honolulu, but now living here at Palm 🌴 Beach Australia
    Your video was excellent, I've only been to Diamond Head Lookout but ofcourse Ala Moana Mall, the North Shore and Dole Pineapple Factory.
    Keep up the good word. Kind regards Moe, Palm 🌴 Beach Australia

    For a long stretch of uncrowded beach that is rimmed with trees if you want to escape the sun, I suggest Waimanalo, also called Sherwood. It’s our favorite due to its relaxed atmosphere and shade.

      Yes they were! Honestly the beaches on the west side were amazing. Ridge hikes are great too

    FYI I called Kualoa Ranch, and they said if you don't book online they charge a $15 non-refundable surcharge. They claim their website is working, but I was unable to book anything

    • @AlvinShares
      @AlvinShares  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s a bummer. I booked online. Maybe there’s a bug now

    Attempted Pali Notches Feb 2023 - it is no longer being maintained, and was treacherous. I bailed after 1/4 mile for safety concerns.

    Would you ok to list your video gear ?

    • @AlvinShares
      @AlvinShares  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Of course! I actually just shoot on my iPhone 12 Pro Max and my DJI mavic air 2. I also use moment lenses on my iPhone.

    Stay 10 feet from the turtles! They are protected and you can't get near them. And if you have any health issues, don't listen to a thing in this video- none of these hikes are for bad knees, ankles, hearts, etc. (To include Diamond Head, which you need to hit by 5:45 am if you want parking, after you make a reservation with their new system.)

    Go fishing or pig hunting or raise your own chickens. Grow your own vegetable. Save money on food.

    Lanikai is nowhere near Diamond Head and you cannot see Lanikai from Diamond Head! And Lanikai is not on the North Shore and the sun does not disappear early.....get your facts straight.....
