Aloha North Shore Beach Bus, Honolulu

Explore Oahu's famous big wave beaches, fresh-water rivers, and snorkeling spots as our guest on the North Shore Beach Bus Adventure. Most bus tours involve a lot of sitting around and snapping photos through the windows of an air-conditioned coach. Fortunately for its passengers, Aloha Beach Bus isn't like most tour companies. Sure, it maintains a fleet of plush, comfortable coaches, but that's where the similarities end: during exciting excursions, tours stop at some of Oahu's most iconic sites, letting riders get off the bus to interact with the island's natural beauty. Grab the North Shore by the horns and get ready to immerse yourself in an action-packed day of fun in the sun that will show you the most that the North Shore has to offer. Read on for some highlights of the packed itinerary:

• Snorkeling with Sea Turtles: A stop at Laniakea Beach, known locally as "Turtle Beach," gives tour-goers plenty of opportunities to spot the island's native population of green sea turtles, but the encounter doesn't end there. After donning provided snorkel gear, riders get the chance to swim with these creatures in their natural habitat.
• Standup Paddleboarding: Navigate the fresh waters of Wailua River aboard a standup paddleboard or kayak, exploring the lush banks and gentle currents.
• Lunch Break: Enjoy delicious grindz for cheap prices as Tsue's Farm, which features Kahuku Shrimp & Non‐Seafood Options.
• Hawaii's Surfing Beaches: Surf-music pioneers the Beach Boys mentioned Waimea Bay in their 1963 hit "Surfin' USA," and the beach still lures in surfers with its gnarly waves. Visit this legendary beach, as well as the famous Banzai Pipeline, where massive curls along the break provide enticing, exhilarating runs.
• Haleiwa: Need a break from the action? Find it during a sightseeing jaunt in Haleiwa, a small coastal town filled with quaint shops and tropical sights.
• Dole Plantation: The origin point of America's love affair with pineapples, this famed plantation still turns them out today. Have a look around, and don't miss a cup of the plantation's famed pineapple ice cream.
