2023 Travel Update: As of 2023, Hawaii is open for tourism by both vaccinated and unvaccinated US citizen travelers without Covid-specific documentation or testing. It also essentially is open to vaccinated non-US citizen travelers with proof of vaccination but no additional testing although some exceptions apply. Nevertheless, be sure to double check the official state of Hawaii requirements and national CDC requirements for up-to-the minute details.
Aloha! Among Honolulu's bountiful attractions — based on spending a month in the city — here are travelgasm.com's top seven things that are popular to do in Honolulu and that definitely should be on your list even for a quick visit.

You're welcome. Let's get started...
