Whether you're a visitor to the island of Oahu, Hawaii or a local, here are the spots I'd show you around the island. And the best part is most of these sites are free or $5 and under (except the Iolani Palace tour / Polynesian Cultural Center). This can be done in one day if you start early in the day, or can be broken up into two days. Don't forget to also visit the west side of Oahu for amazing beaches and hikes. This video was way too long to do that side. Check out my Waianae Eats video for more westside action! And don't forget Pearl Harbor (closed while filming due to a water main break) and Aloha Stadium's Swap Meet, which can both be done on another day if you wish to go there.
If you are into hiking, some other popular hikes not mentioned are the Manoa Falls Trail, Makapu'u Lighthouse Trail and the Pillbox Trial in Lanikai.
