146) The North Shore
The North Shore of Oahu is the place where big waves come and serious surfers go. It is also a lot less touristy in the sense of no resorts, but crowds still draw.
Mikey and I headed up there along the East coast, which was a stunningly beautiful drive. The coast has so much to offer- grasslands, sand beaches, rocky beaches, lava cliffs, big waves, calm coves, beautiful water, islands. rain forests, and stunning mountains.
When we got up there the first stop I wanted to make was at an Audubon run preserve/gardens. We spent a couple hours there, and then headed to the beach.
The goal was to find a deserted beach and just chill till the sunset. We ended up finding a great stretch of beach with almost no one on it besides us and a sea turtle. It wouldn't have been a good place to swim, but to just walk and relax, it was off the charts, and we were fortunate to have a spectacular sunset, partly due to some rain showers which just swept over us (15 minutes later and it would have ruined the sunset for us).
