This is a collection of video I recorded in July of 2011, while I was on a trip to Oahu and the big island of Hawaii. I had a chance to visit many place on the two islands like the Polynesian Cultural Center, Pearl Harbor, Sea Life Park, Black Sand Beach, and more. I have edited down the video to create this segment. I hope you enjoy it as much as I had shooting it.

Surfing the Bonzai Pipeline! – Hawaii Part 5 Oahu
It’s Hawaii Week! Join me & Kim for some goofy fun in paradise! Part 1: youtu.be Part 2: youtu.be Part 3: youtu.be Part 4: youtu.be This was our bonus FREE trip to Oahu this past Christmas! Kim won two free flights and a few nights in Waikiki (from a raffle to raise money for Japan Tsunami relief) and we had a blast visiting Oahu for the first time! Also, everyone who visits Hawaii needs to attend a luau at least once — but make sure it’s in a beautiful location and not on a concrete rooftop! 🙂 Hawaiian Music by Daniel Ho www.youtube.com www.danielho.com opening theme instrumentation and incidental music by Kevin MacLeod http Vocals by Greg Benson Hawaii Five-O-ish music provided by Jewelbeat www.jewelbeat.com See more of Greg’s Travels! http Oahu is the third largest of the Hawaiian Islands and the most populous of the islands in the US state of Hawaii. The state capital, Honolulu, is on Oahu’s southeast coast. The island is home to about 953207 people (approximately 75% of the resident population of the state). Well-known features found on Oʻahu include Waikiki, Pearl Harbor, Diamond Head, Hanauma, Kaneʻohe Bay, Kailua Bay, and the North Shore. It also has the best food and shave ice we’ve found on any Hawaiian island!

LANIKAI PILLBOX TRAIL HD “Waydes World Hawaii”
(Easy / Moderate Activity) The Lanikai Pillbox Trail is considered by most to be one of the easiest hikes with some of the most amazing views. However, I don’t recommend it for children under 12. The start of the hike consists of a major incline up to the first outlook. Once you reach that outlook the views will carry you to the final destination…This hike has several Pillboxes as your incline continues but just the excitement alone within you carries you higher and higher. You will forget all about the fact that you are climbing a ridge line to reach that final Pillbox and STUNNING VIEW of not only Kailua and Lanikai but all the way to the Makapuu Lighthouse! If you watch this video at several points I do some things that look dramatic. I choose to go the harder way right along the rocky ridge line but there are several ways to reach the Pillboxes and all are easier then the way I choose. You choose which way to go easy or hard. I have done this trail so many times I continue to try to find harder ways to get to the top. Please enjoy this hour hike. It’s truly a hike you should not MISS if you are on Oahu. Also I would highly hope you attempt this at SUNRISE. Bring a flashlight or head lamp and head up about 5am. YOU WILL NOT REGRET sitting on top of the Pillbox as the SUN RISES for you! Bring your camera and the one you love and enjoy a moment in time that will be cherished. *NOTE if it is a bright sunny day the SUN will be brutal so bring plenty of water and SUNBLOCK …

Punalu’u Black Sand Beach
Punaluʻu Beach (also called Black Sand Beach) is a beach between Pāhala and Nāʻālehu on the Big Island of the US state of Hawaii. The beach has black sand made of basalt and created by lava flowing into the ocean which explodes as it reaches the ocean and cools. This volcanic activity is in the Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park. Punaluʻu is frequented by endangered Hawksbill and Green turtles, which can often be seen basking on the black sand.
