North Shore Activity Tour

Location: Waikiki, Oahu

Tour Highlights

Spend a full day on the North Shore the way locals actually live it. This is Hawaii time, unhurried, sun-soaked, and built around how you want to spend the day. Choose to surf, snorkel, paddle, bike, visit waterfalls, or just wander barefoot between beaches and Haleʻiwa town as the day unfolds at island pace.

  • Explore North Shore landmarks with longtime surfer guides
  • Choose ocean or land activities at your own pace
  • Visit Pipeline, Sunset Beach, and Waimea Bay lookouts
  • Get up close with Hawaiian green sea turtles
  • Wander Haleʻiwa town for lunch, shops, and beach time

Quick Local Tip: Ask your guide what’s best that day becauseconditions change everything on the North Shore. Calm ocean means snorkeling, strong recent rain makes the waterfall shine, and if neither is ideal, the bike ride along the coastline path is always a solid call.

What to Expect

Begin your day with pickup in a comfortable mini-adventure bus and enjoy a narrated drive to Oahu’s North Shore. Along the way, your guide will explain the day’s flexible itinerary and help you choose your personalized activity options.

The tour kicks off with scenic stops at world-famous surf spots like Pipeline, Sunset Beach, and Waimea Bay offering photo opportunities and a chance to witness the raw power of Oahu’s waves.

Next, you’ll have 2.5 hours to enjoy your selected morning activity:

  • Snorkeling over a vibrant tropical reef
  • Biking along the scenic North Shore path
  • Visiting Waimea Valley’s botanical garden and swimming in a waterfall

After the morning session, you'll visit Turtle Beach to see Hawaiian green sea turtles up close, followed by a stop in Historic Haleiwa Town. Explore its charming shops, art galleries, and iconic shave ice stands or return to the beach for more adventure.

In the afternoon, choose a second activity (approx. 1.5 hours):
