7:30 AM — Fuel Up with a Local Breakfast

Start your day with a stop at Leonard’s Bakery or Island Vintage Coffee for fresh malasadas or an açaí bowl.

A good beach day starts with great energy!

9:00 AM — Drive to Lanikai Beach

Hop in your Akamai ride and head east toward the windward side. In under an hour, you’ll reach Lanikai Beach — one of the most stunning spots on the island.

Soft white sand, calm turquoise waters, and a peaceful vibe make it ideal for swimming or lounging.

11:30 AM — Snorkel at Hanauma Bay

Next stop: Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve. This marine sanctuary is perfect for spotting colorful fish and learning about Hawaii’s reef ecosystems.

Bring your gear or rent it nearby. (Note: reserve online in advance!)

1:30 PM — Lunch at a Food Truck in Waimānalo

Cruise a few minutes north and grab lunch at a local food truck.

Try garlic shrimp, kalua pork, or a poke bowl for a true ʻono treat.

Don’t forget a fresh coconut to drink!

3:00 PM — Relax and Recharge

Make a spontaneous stop at a lesser-known beach like Sherwood Forest or Makapuʻu Lookout for photos and a quick nap under the palms.

Your Akamai ride makes it easy to stop wherever Aloha calls.

5:30 PM — Sunset at Sandy Beach or Tantalus Lookout

For golden hour magic, choose between two unforgettable options: Sandy Beach for oceanfront views or drive up to Tantalus Lookout for a panoramic view over Honolulu.
