Thanks for this info, I'm only there for 5 days, so which of these are the must-do/see?

My gf hates heights and I'm not a huge fan of them either, so I don't really want to go on any crazy hikes, regardless of the view.

Def go to all the beaches mentioned

Mauna Wili Falls is the easiest hike (1.5 miles) that ends at a small waterfall/pond with a ledge 30 ft up that everyone uses to jump into the pond. Bring water / mosquito repellant.. Google for directions

Def walk the waikiki strip early evening (incredibly safe area bc police station right there)

If you're into the touristy stuff:
Jermaines Luau
Polynesian Cultural Center

If you're into History / Culture:
Bishop Museum
Pearl Harbor Memorial

Oh! You gotta go to the Flea Market located at Aloha Stadium
(Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 7:30 am to 3:00 pm.) Wear sunscreen and bring $.

If you like clubbing at all, at go to Zanzabar .. I think Wed nights at Dave and Busters are packed. (Decently packed weekends). Brew Moon is packed on Friday nights.

Check out Ala Moana at least once if you like shopping

As for Dining, I REALLY like "Todai" in Waikiki (all you can eat seafood/Japanese) .. Also make sure to go to the local places like L&L and zippys
