Yes. And that spicy sugar stuff is popular with kids. For me

Pineapple Shave Ice with a scop of ice cream or sherbet in the bottom with the condensed milk on top. I only brought that up, because the though of condensed milk on top sounded disgusting to me until I actually tried it. It was amazing.

The spicy sugary stuff was called ling chi moi or something like that. Kind of like the stuff on some gummy worms. I did not like it, but my kids do.

Don't do this, it's just a swap meet of cheap crap you probably won't ever use/wear and don't need.

Unless you like stuff like that.

Cougarbib

Biskit? GTYO.

7/19/18 5:29pm

I call everything a biskit. Even a Hawaiian scone.

Defintely go to the beach.

7/18/18 8:49pm

Snorkeling at Hanauma bay. But get there when if first opens; otherwise those

Shihan

I would just say skip Hanauma and go to three tables/shark cove

My favorite snorkeling, ever.

Rock jumping at Waimea

Zaphod

7/18/18 8:54pm

So much fun.

7/18/18 8:56pm

But only in the summer. Winter can get hairy. Also the cliff divers up Waimea

Zaphod

7/18/18 8:58pm

Better yet ride a one wheeler off the cliff! Instead of jumping. AMIRIGHT? 😉

7/18/18 9:04pm

Here is where you need to go as first timers.... Pearl Harbor, PCC, Waimea bay

kotacoug

7/18/18 8:54pm

Is PCC really with it? Cheapest I could find was 120 a head

Hanauma Bay, Surfing, snorkeling and Pearl Harbor.

JAGA97

7/18/18 8:56pm

Already some good suggestions, I will add Waimea Bay and Waimea falls to the list. Go to the Moana Surfrider...

7/18/18 8:56pm

Add parasailing to the list, it's a lot of fun.

7/18/18 8:58pm

If you do Pearl Harbor, spend a little extra and go to the Battleship Missouri.

7/18/18 9:04pm

I was there the day the brought in the Missouri. 1998-ish

FYI: Arizona Memorial at Pearl Harbor is Closed indefinitely

Shaved Ice at Matsumoto's and Giovanni's shrimp truck close to PCC.

Shihan

7/18/18 11:02pm

Do this. Look to see if there is a d at the end of Shave. Report back.

It is almost if not a disadvantage to have a car in Waikiki - parking

Cougarbib

Get good shaved ice.

Gorum the Old

7/19/18 8:23am
