Guide to the Waikiki Historic Trail
Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii

The Waikiki Historic Trail is a walking tour of Waikiki that highlights twenty-three historic sites. Plaques mounted on six foot tall surfboard-shaped markers have been installed at nineteen of the historic sites. The Waikiki Historic Trail begins on the Diamond Head end of Waikiki and it ends on the grounds of the Hilton Hawaiian Village Resort, after a detour through the Ala Moana and Hawaii Convention Center areas of Honolulu.
