Things to do in Urban Honolulu

Honolulu is equal parts bustling urban center and laid back beach culture. Under the massive banyan trees you'll find modern galleries, amazing sushi joints and epic cocktails made with local produce. Shop Kamaka for a legit ukulele and Bailey's for your Aloha get-up. Eat poke and OnoPops. Commune with the ancients at Pu'u o Mahuka Heiau. See current event listings below.
