Most people tend to forget that other islands beside the "Big Island" offer specific things for people to see that many find interesting. The following are some of the most notable of those sites to visit in Oahu.

Pearl Harbor

This is a historical place that will always hold a place in History, as it was the location in which the Japanese attacked. The USS Arizona is still resting at the bottom of the ocean in the area. Those who visit can take a tour of the USS Missouri battleship and get a feel of just what it may have been like for those unfortunate souls who gave their life during that day.

Waikiki is known for its surfing. However, if you are not a surfer, then perhaps you should steer clear of actually participating because the waters can get rough, just as any ocean has the potential to. But families and singles alike will get a kick out have watching those that are professional or amateur wave riders. There is also the unique opportunity to take an underwater sub which will explore the waters in the area, a memorable experience for anyone and you will get to see much more than if you were simply to snorkel or scuba dive. Children that visit these areas always love the idea of going down into an actual submarine, an experience that they would otherwise not have anywhere else.

There are numerous other aspects to keep in mind when traveling to Oahu, which includes the vast shopping available, a few high-class spas to visit if you enjoy a day of relaxation, and the many opportunities to snorkel in these waters.
