Scenic lookout, you can see half the island. I like to see the Honolulu city lights at night. Awesome by day or by night! One of my favorite places to say Aloha to the island!

Best place for souvenirs and gifts! Open Wednesdays and Weekends, unless there is something going on. It's a flea market, swap meet. Many booths. Takes about 2hrs to walk around the whole stadium, depending on how often you stop. Bring lots of cash, but there are many ATMs there, too. Not too much in the way of eat and drink.
