Ho'omaluhia Botanical Garden
Driving Destination~25 min from WaikikiGardenScenicFamily Fun
A breathtaking 400-acre botanical garden at the base of the Ko'olau Mountains in Kaneohe. The misty peaks reflected in the garden's 32-acre lake create a scene that looks straight out of Jurassic Park. Drive through lush collections of tropical plants from around the world, walk the trails, or simply soak in the dramatic mountain views.
Tip: The iconic photo spot is the road just inside the entrance gate with the Ko'olau range looming ahead. Free admission. No swimming in the lake, but catch-and-release fishing is allowed on weekends.
