Natural Highlights of Oahu Adventure

Join Oahu's most experienced eco-tour company visiting many beautiful locations in a style and with information that no other company can provide. First stop is the Paiko Lagoon Wildlife Sanctuary, the ideal place to observe native wetland bird species. Your exploration of Oahu continues with visiting the world famous Hanauma Bay and the Kahauloa tuff cone along the island's stunning southeast volcanic coastline.

Next stop is Halona Cove, where Green Sea Turtles and Humpback Whales swim in the crystal clear waters off "From Here to Eternity Beach" and a blowhole shoots columns of saltwater into the sky. After stopping at Makapu'u lookout, where you'll enjoy breathtaking panoramic views of offshore islands, visit colorful tide pools and the 25,000 year old Kaupo lava flow. Your professional nature guide will show you rare species of native Hawaiian coastal plants and a variety of colorful seabirds including Red-footed Boobies, Great Frigate birds and Red-tailed Tropicbirds. Just past "Robin's Nest", where Magnum PI was filmed, you'll stop for a walk on Oahu's longest sandy beach and enjoy the aquamarine waters of Waimanalo Bay where tropical fish and corals abound.

Then upon reaching the Enchanted Lake Bird Sanctuary, one of the premier birdwatching locations on Oahu, you can observe several species of rare Hawaiian birds. Then travel to the ancient Hawaiian Temple, Ulupou Heiau, to see one of Oahu's best preserved archaeological sites and to learn about many important Polynesian plants. At the world renowned Pali Lookout, described by Mark Twain as one of the most beautiful views on Earth, you will see the turquoise waters of Kaneohe Bay and the jagged, 2000 foot vertical cliffs of the majestic Koolau volcano.
