When planning a beach vacation in Hawaii, the first step is to decide where to go. Each Hawaiian island is different, offering a choice of accommodation, activities, scenery, and, of course, beaches.

Oahu
The most famous beach in Hawaii is Waikiki Beach on the island of Oahu. It's home to numerous hotels and resorts, some right on the beach and others a just a few blocks from it. Vacationers come to Waikiki Beach for their honeymoon, on a family vacation and to learn how to surf.

The Royal Hawaiian hotel is decorated all in pink. Because of its historic ambiance and romantic atmosphere, the hotel is especially popular with honeymooners.

Next to the Royal Hawaiian is the 1,695-room Sheraton Waikiki which offers many rooms overlooking the ocean.

For a more secluded beach vacation, reserve a beachfront cottage at Turtle Bay Resort on the north end of the island. The resort has two golf courses, a spa and a kid's club. Find more beach vacation ideas on Oahu.
