Last time we went we got the Go Oahu cards from Costco. The Island tour was really good and so was the Luau. The Polynesian Cultural Center is great and the kids loved the catamaran ride. The previously mentioned places are all good and there is also a pretty good zoo at the south end of Waikiki. We never bothered to rent a car as all the tours have a tour bus come pick you up and drop you off right at your hotel entrance. Our tour guides were all native Hawaiians who could tell you about the history of all the places and were very entertaining. Oh, and if you go to McDonalds and they still have tarot root pie, it's pretty awful.

hanauma bay for snorkling...

dole plantation is nice. they always include that in island tours.
pearl harbor wasn my cup of tea, but others i know paid for access to the other ships/ exhibits and really liked it.

lotsa good food. paddle boarding always fun, not sure where u staying but u can rent a paddle board or two beach front nxt to pacific beach hotel i believe.

luau's (sp) are nice, dont go to the one in the sheraton though (big mistake on my part)

personally i go to the abc store and buy a floaty bed and drift away lol

speaking of which, there is a supermarket 1 block off the strip, if you close go there to get your stuff. otherwise abc stores which are located on every corner are good

I've heard about the Go Oahu cards. I'll find more information about them. Thanks.
