United States Hawaii Haleiwa

Waimea Valley

A historical nature park offering gardens, a waterfall, cultural artifacts, and educational programs focused on native Hawaiian heritage.

Tips from the community

There's a good farmers market here (mostly stuff to eat, but that's not so bad, eh?), shops, more food, AND a whole nature preserve. It costs, but it's a beautiful spot to wander and enjoy. Definitely a place we'll return to again.

  • Top things to do - on Oahu

    My list of favorite places and things to do when visiting Oahu. While Oahu is more urban and densely populated than the other island, and it is at the bottom of my list for snorkeling, it offers an incredible variety of beaches, hikes, drives, surfing, history, culture, and food. This is the island for those who love great food and an incredible assortment of dining options.

    At the tail end of pandemic restrictions, we headed to Oahu - forced to use the credit for a trip we had to cancel in 2020 when Hawaii completely shut down tourism. It was worth the wait.
