The Gathering Place of Hawaii, over 5 million tourists flock to the most populous of the Hawaiian islands each year. Oahu is remembered as the filming site for several classic television shows. Theres little reason to question why Waikiki Beach is one of the most recognized beaches around, and the shopping malls rank among the largest in the world. With tours running nearly every day of the year, theres no excuse not to experience the hub of Hawaii at least once. Book it, Dann-O!
