el5y Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Hey everyone! The wife and I are headed to Oahu on Monday for our "honeymoon" and first real vacation in over 2 years. Got any suggestions on what to see and where to go? Right now we're planning on an all day snorkel trip and another day of sailing and sunset dinner sailing. We're staying on Waikiki but would like to head up to North Shore for a bit as well. Should we rent a car while we're in town or just taxi it every where except the trip to North Shore? Any help is greatly appreciated! Eric Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
808subaru Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 Hey, what's up Eric! Reston, huh. I was raised in Centreville, Fairfax County. I'd say rent a car when you get here, taxi's are expensive. All the subaru impreza guys on oahu hang here: i-club.com Check this thread out: http://www.i-club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=69124 Post up there with any questions. You'll get more responses. Happy honeymoon to you two! Edit:\ Oh I misread your post a bit. If you're only gonna be in town, then I'd say you can walk mostly around waikiki. If you were gonna explore the island, definitely rent a car. Taxi's will cost a mint. We also have the best Bus system in the nation at your disposal as well.

Which dealership? I'm an car inspector/auditor for FHB. I go to the dealerships once a month, and walk the lots. Well i rotate dealers every so often with 2 co-workers, but holler at me if you see me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nautious1 Posted August 1, 2008 Share Posted August 1, 2008 One of the better dinner/sunset cruises is on the Navatek. The leave like a hour or so before sunset and cruise out in the ocean until its dark. The food is great on both levels. Top floor has the lobster/steak dinner for about $50 and the bottom floor has a buffet about half the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
