The morning sun slowly warms the sandy beaches of Waikiki as your E Noa guide escorts you aboard and begins to weave the tales of our island. The Eastern shores of O'ahu call as you circle iconic Diamond Head and pass through Kahala-where mansions live next door to beach houses. You will find yourself staring down at one of the most photographed places on O'ahu, Hanauma Bay.

• History moves to forefront as you weave up the Ko'olau Mountains to the N u'uanu Pali Lookout where King Kamehameha battled victoriously to unite the Hawaiian Islands.
• And just that quickly you will find yourself in a cleft of the mountain gazing at the Byodo-In Temple commemorating the 100 year anniversary of the first Japanese immigrants.
• Cruise the 7 miles of world famous surfing beaches along the North Shore stopping along the way to enjoy the local flavors.
• Waimea Falls and the surrounding valley are rich with history, spirituality and island traditions. Your E Noa guide will take you through the botanical gardens of this vast and tranquil setting. Learn how deeply embedded tradition is in today's Hawaiian culture.
• Around the corner is Historic Dole Plantation surrounded by rows of pineapple and fields of sugarcane stalks. Your E Noa guide will share the rich plantation history and describe how this famously sweet and spikey plant became a symbol of hospitality and Hawai'i.
• The scenic round-trip journey from and back to Honolulu is a treat in itself when accompanied by stories and fun facts shared by your E Noa guide. Fasten your seatbelt for an amazing circle island excursion that will leave you carefree and full of the Aloha Spirit!
