Honolulu is the state's capital city, which showcases the island's urban appeal and where world-class resorts contrast with the soft white-sanded beaches. On the North Shore, it is possible to gaze at rural Hawaii, find the most brilliant blue waters and hikes that lead to stunning views. Honolulu is home to top-notch restaurants, excellent cultural events and nightlife that showcase the Hawaiian Culture.
The best time to visit Honolulu is from mid-April to early June or between September and mid-December. During these seasons the attractions are less crowded, festivals are plentiful and airfare and room rates are at their lowest.

Renting a car is the best way of getting around in Honolulu, however during peak seasons and in tourist areas roads can get congested and parking is often scarce and expensive. Even though many top attractions are too far from one another to reach on foot, it is possible to get by if you stay in Waikiki. Another great alternative is using the public transport, Oahu's public bus system is easy to use and covers most of the island thanks to its extensive routes. Taxis are expensive in the city but can eliminate the headache of having to drive yourself.
