Oahu

If you are planning a trip to Oahu, then you need a copy of Oahu Revealed: The Ultimate Guide to Honolulu, Waikiki & Beyond (Oahu Revisited). As one reviewer wrote, "Oahu Revealed is blisteringly candid, refreshingly honest, funny, interesting, and educational." You'll miss a lot without this book. And there will be a lot you wished you missed. This book is as much about avoiding tourist dreck as it is about finding hidden gems. Virtually all of the links found at the bottom of this page came from this book.
