Brenda and I went for a walk and swim at Waikiki beach yesterday. The setting is beautiful and the water a good temperature, but the sand was more gravelly that we are used to in Australia. (The sand is transported from Molokai.)
The top photo shows the two-mile stretch of Waikiki beach extending from Ala Wai boat harbor to Diamond Head in the background. The beach is sheltered by a reef.
The middle photo is of the "lagoon" next to the Hilton hotel. In the background you can see the masts of the boats at Ala Wai harbor.
The bottom photo is another view of the Lagoon,
This blog began in late 2006 with the planning and preparation for a circumnavigation of the world in my 39-foot sail boat Pachuca. It then covered a successful 5-year circumnavigation that ended in April 2013. The blog now covers life with Pachuca back home in Australia.
