Fun Things to Do in Oahu, Hawaii

After a long day spent lounging on the golden sands, staring out at the horizon line at miles of the warm, clear Pacific, you return to one of the luxurious Oahu hotels, or Hawaii vacation rentals  for a refreshing rest.

The important question now, is what to do with the evening–and on Oahu, options are abound when it comes to nightlife. With hundreds of bars, clubs, hotels, restaurants, and theaters easily accessible in Waikiki and downtown Honolulu, you won’t need to travel far for a good time. Whatever you choose to do, however, make sure to carve out a moment or two and look west to watch the awe-inspiring Hawaiian sunset, as the burst of colors exploding between the palm trees is sure to take your breath away.

Only a short distance from a host of nightlife options, the Lotus Honolulu offers the perfect combination of proximity to famous natural Hawaiian beauties, fascinating cultural landmarks, and other great attractions that are sure to keep you busy, should you choose to pry yourself away from the beach!

World-Class Dining
Honolulu attracts some of the best chefs in the world, and visitors get to reap the benefits! With a bounty of fresh seafood and produce available, as well as many different cultural influences ranging from the Pacific Rim to classic Polynesia, you may just be inclined to try something new. Aloha Tower Marketplace, right on the water, has a slew of restaurants to choose from, and with its unbeatable location, the sunset has never looked so sweet as when it’s combined with a delicious meal.

For a look at some authentic Hawaiian culture, after dinner, stop by the International Marketplace to grab some dessert. Filled with tons of different merchants, you can find the ideal souvenir before heading home.

Evening Entertainment
Kalakaua Avenue is one of the main roads running through Waikiki, and it is loaded with nightclubs and bars worth checking out. Whether you’re hoping to dance the night away or just kick back with a tropical cocktail, feeling the ocean pulsing only a short distance away while the moon shines bright creates an atmosphere of unparalleled bliss. Popular with both locals and tourists, you’re sure to find something you’ll like. And don’t forget to check back during the day to discover this area’s alter ego: a shopper’s paradise!

On any given night, there is also live entertainment to be found. The calendar is always packed, and features acts ranging from comedians, national and local bands to hula shows. If you’d like to just relax and watch a movie, you can always visit the Consolidated Ward 16 Theatres, where you can catch all of the latest flicks.

A Hawaiian vacation is sure to relax and refresh you, and with a bustling nightlife complementing the beauty surrounding you, you’re never at a loss for activities that will make your trip unforgettable.
