Oahu's North Shore

Although we had a late 3PM check-out, we'd had enough of the Halekulani and Honolulu, which really isn't a very attractive city, and decided to leave early and head up to the North Shore to explore and have lunch before head back to the airport for our 5:40P flight. And back up H1 and H2 past Mililani for the third time in two days.

Much prettier once we got onto Highway 99.

To the coast and numerous sandy beaches.

 
And to Sunset Beach, home of some of the biggest surf in the world... in the winter. Not so much in summer.
 

And then a little further up to coast to Turtle Bay which seemed to be the only major resort area on the North Shore.

We headed for the beachside restaurant Ola. Great location, nice atmosphere and tables with a view.

Whoa, TMI!

Pretty good comfort food as well.
 

After lunch, I headed up to the hotel to see what it looked like.

Meh, pretty pedestrian looking lobby. Not even close to some of the wonderful resort hotels on Maui, The Big Island, even Kauai.

And another photo stop on the way to back to the airport.
