One of my favorite vacation spots is Provincetown in Mass. because I don t need a car. Went to Kauai, but I seemed to be driving everywhere. On any Island, are there any small cute beach communities where I can walk and bike everywhere-to the beach, to eat, to shop?
If Ptown is your favorite vacation spot, is it safe to say you enjoy alternative lifestyles? If so, then stay in Waikiki and ride your bike to Queens Beach. You can ride around the park and if you re adventurous you can bike it around Daimond Head over to Kapahulu. It s not a small beach community . it s a rather busy touristy place but it also depends on the kind of lifestyle you want to encounter. There are plenty of great alternative lifestyle clubs in Waikiki as well. The only other small town beach community that might be like that might be on Maui. I wouldn t go bike riding on the North Shore or Haleiwa if you are looking for the Ptown feel.
Aloha!you really dont need to rent a car especially if you are on Oahu. Waikiki is a great place to ride your bike to get around, it is very pedestrian friendly also! If you want to get around Oahu on a larger scale I suggest using The Bus - it goes all the way around the island for a very inexpensive price.Also recommend taking The Bus over to the North Shore and exploring several of the small N Shore towns, they are quaint, fun and a great place to enjoy local surf culture.
Almost anywhere.Waikiki, you don t even need a bike, you can just walk.Kailua is a great place to ride a bike but if you get into Kailua town, just like Waikiki you can just walk.North Shore is also a great place.But like I said, almost anywhere on the island.
If you stay in Waikiki, you don t even need a bike. You can just walk. If you need to a bit farther, take public transportation. To go even further, e.g. north shore, join a day tour.
