Day Adventures on Kailua

July 3rd, 2010

When you come to a great Hawaiian vacation spot you’re going to find lots of fun things to do. Many people start out their vacation with a drink in their hand, sleeping on the beach in the warm sun. After a couple of days regaining energy from a stressful life they start to get more energized to see the local sights.  

One of the first things to do is to put on a snorkel, mask and flippers and dive into the underwater world. If you have time to get a diver’s license than go for it. Spending time several feet under water is like being on a whole other planet. You become quite the curious visitor in a totally different world. You are going to find what you need to snorkel or dive at Aaron’s Dive Shop . They even offer up some divers courses that you could take. You don’t have to be certified to dive but you will want to learn some safety skills before heading out into the water with a tank on. The staff here can get you on your way.  

Speaking of learning something new. How about getting into town and heading over to the Island Glassworks . You have seen the amazing vases and other artifacts that are made out of blown glass and this studio offers up some classes. It could be a great opportunity to see if you have found another passion in life. There are always some great works of glass art for sale and if you have the opportunity to make a real masterpiece they will ship it home for you.  

Take a spin on the boardwalk with a bicycle rental. This is always a fun way to get around a new place. The Bike Shop has some great equipment and lots of maps to navigate the area. The staff are all experienced bicycle racers and know the area well. They can get you sized with the right bike and headed in the best riding area for your experience. All you need now is a ride from one of the hotels kailua is known for and enjoy something new.
