2025 Waikiki Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in October)

Many people will eat acai bowls when they go to Hawaii, but I recommend the easy-to-eat nalu health bar! The main acai bowls are the nalu bowl and the moana bowl, but if it's your first time, the naku bowl is the only choice! In addition to various fruits, it is also topped with bee pollen and is delicious 🐝 There are several stores, but the Waikiki store is on the first floor of Waikiki Beach Walk! It is surrounded by hotels and is in a safe location with many tourists. You can eat it quickly on your way home from the beach or shopping 🥣 #0 yen trip January 2025

TROPICAL TRIBE on the first floor of the Waikiki Shore Hotel🏝️ This time we went to the Waikiki store🌺 The appeal of the Waikiki store is its great location. It's right in front of Waikiki Beach, so we recommend eating there in the relaxed morning hours. You can either take out or eat in, and the store has counter seats and tables for two🪑 But we recommend the open terrace seats🏝️ We recommend adding peanut butter to the signature menu "Tropical Tribe Bowl"🌺 You can get the largest size and share it with two people☝️🫶 Please try the acai bowl in this wonderful location☀️ [Business hours] 8:00-19:00

##myhiddengems #localguides ##mytravelhacks Waikiki Beach is a popular destination, and these seven hacks will help you make the most of your visit: 1. **Visit Off-Peak Hours**: Arrive early in the morning or later in the afternoon to avoid the midday crowds and secure a prime spot on the beach. 2. **Pack Light**: Bring only essentials like a towel, sunscreen, and water. This makes it easier to move around and keeps your belongings safe. 3. **Use Public Transportation**: Parking in Waikiki can be expensive. Save money by taking TheBus or using bike rentals to get around. 4. **Bring a Reusable Water Bottle**: Stay hydrated by filling up at water stations around the area, reducing waste and saving money. 5. **Try Local Food Trucks**: Skip the expensive beachfront restaurants and enjoy delicious local eats from nearby food trucks. 6. **Take Advantage of Free Activities**: Enjoy free hula shows, live music, and other cultural performances along the beach. 7. **Watch the Sunset**: End your day with a stunning sunset view, one of Waikiki’s most breathtaking experiences.

#OverseasTravel #Hawaii #SeptemberTravelSupport Day 1. A Strange Hawaii Trip 1. My favorite sunset spot is the ocean. But that ocean is Waikiki Beach! 2. I was walking and the sunset happened. Looking back, the first day went by smoothly without any planning. I should've changed clothes before heading out, didn't I? 3. Arrived at Honolulu Airport. It was hot but not humid, so my discomfort index was 0. 4. My strange Hawaii trip begins! Air Premia is spacious and wonderful, isn't it? 5. Yard House's delicious poke nachos and mushroom pizza. And MATCHA Stand MAIKO, which I regret not being able to eat twice.
