Hawai’i seems to have a reputation for two things: it’s incredibly beautiful and expensive. Avoid falling for the tourist traps and overspending during your trip, and enjoy all the free activities you can while in Honolulu.
Luckily, Honolulu is a treasure trove for incredible natural beauty, including sites like Diamond Head volcano, Hanauma Bay, Koko Head along Maunalua Bay, Nu‘uanu Pali and Manoa Falls — just to name a few. Each state park and hiking trail can range about $5–7.50 per guest and carload, adding an additional $1–3 for parking. Speak with your hotel or resort about tour options or rent a Jeep before your arrival and make your own way, enjoying the rugged beauty. Some rentals range $25–50 a day.
Enjoy a beautiful, laid-back lunch at Goofy Honolulu, with a menu including local organic fare. Enjoy an Ahi Poke Avocado Bowl for $11 or a cup of soup for $3. With local vegetable bibimbap and green spaghetti for $14 each, you can fill up on large portions for less than $15.
Get back out sightseeing and enjoying the local culture, walking along the streets in town, window shopping and taking in the vibrant, but surfer-style décor, or opt for some history at the Pearl Harbor Historic Site.
