Welcome to Oahu

Sometimes called “The Gathering Place,” Oahu certainly lives up to its name. The third largest Hawaiian island is home to the majority of Hawaii’s diverse population, a fusion of East and West cultures rooted in the values and traditions of the Native Hawaiian people. It’s this fundamental contrast between the ancient and the modern that makes discovering Oahu — from bustling city life to laidback surf towns — so enjoyable. You'll find plenty of different options for exploring Oahu's different regions, the island's many activities, its eclectic restaurants and accommodations.

A Waho Makou o Awawamalu

Hear a Hawaiian Chant

Oahu, the child of Papa and Lua, is honored here, starting from the Eastern point of Awawamalu (sheltered valley) known as "Sandy Beach. “Halona,” the “blow hole” means to peer or to be watchful, a good trait in learning. Halona’s sea spray represents the knowledge that would be shared at Halauaola. Mailikukahi, fifth generation ancestor of Kakuhihewa, is credited for establishing the six moku (land divisions) of Oahu, which are Koolaupoko, Koolauloa, Waialua, Waianae, Ewa and Kona. This mele (chant) humbly asks for entry into a protected realm of hula, traditional knowledge, sacred practices, creativity, mutual respect and aloha.
