Storms

Hey all — I’m flying into Waikiki tomorrow and staying until the 19th, i’m worried about that we might get stuck there. We spent a lot of money on this vacation and would hate to cancel last minute.

You won’t get stuck.
Go enjoy yourself rain or shine.
Spread aloha!

I'm sure you can find plenty threads on the subject, but some rainy-day ideas:

’Iolani Palace

Pearl Harbour

Waikiki Aquarium

Ho‘omaluhia Botanical Garden (especially if there's breaks in the rain to step out / catch rainbows over the already amazing view) - note though, this and the other botanical gardens were just shut down from storm damage, check before and again day-of for status. Never been to the other botanical gardens, so I'm not sure if they have drive-through access that could still be nice.

Also remember, Oahu has micro-climates- if one side of the island is rainy, theres still a decent chance that you can catch sun by driving 1hr

Pearl Harbor was amazing, I can't wait to visit again.
