Hawaii Vacation


Oahu is famous for some of the best surfing spots in the world, and they virtually surround this 1600 sq. mile island. Beachfront Oahu vacation rentals are perfect for surfers or those who want to watch the many surfing competitions that take place each year throughout Oahu.

Depending upon the season, surfers and other beach enthusiasts can visit the north or southern shores. In the winter months, large storms in the Northern Pacific Ocean cause huge waves to roll in to the northern and western shores of the island. In the summer months, surfers can ride the waves along the south and eastern shores generated by storms originating in the South Pacific.

Oahu vacation rentals are available year round at beachfront locations on both shores. Surfing enthusiasts can gather up a group of friends and rent a house or condominium where they can store their surfing gear in the evening and visit the beach for bonfires that take place throughout the island.

Those wishing to ride the waves from November through March will want to visit the north or west shores. The North Shore is considered the surfing capital of Oahu and consists of many beaches, including Sunset Beach which hosts the second "wave" of the annual Triple Crown of Surfing championships in December. Other beaches on the North Shore include Waimea Bay Beach, Ehukai Beach, and Haleiwa's Ali'i Beach, the site of the first Triple Crown Surfing Championships that take place in November.

Even beginning surfers will enjoy paddling in the smaller waves off these beaches. After watching the various competitions, or competing with many others, visitors to the North Shore can relax on one of the beaches and watch the fabulous sunset the North Shore of Hawaii has to offer.

Those wishing a more quiet and relaxing vacation, while still enjoying everything a beach can offer, will enjoy visiting the West Shore. Makaha Beach Park is an ideal beach for "long board" surfing, although the water can be a bit rough for swimming during the winter months. This clean, quiet beach is perfect for those who want to practice a little bit of surfing, enjoy the beach and relax in a tranquil atmosphere. There are many Oahu vacation rentals on this side of the island for those who prefer peace and quiet.

From May through September, surfers pack the Southeast shores, which are popular for bodysurfing for both beginners and experts. The Southeast shores have two locales famous for bodysurfing: Makapu'u Beach and Sandy Beach, although Sandy Beach is not recommended for novices as the waves tend to be a bit rougher and move faster than those at Makapu'u Beach.

Whether you are a surfing enthusiast or beach lover, a honeymoon couple, family or a group of avid surfers, Oahu vacation rentals offer the perfect beachfront accommodations.
