Honolulu Business Directory

• » The City
  Honolulu is a city on the island of Oahu and the capital city of Hawaii. It shares Oahu with the famous Waikiki Beach, the even more famous North Shore surf spots, including Pipeline and Waimea Bay. It’s also home to the infamous Pearl Harbor, the site of an attack on the United States of America in the early 1940’s.
  
  One may think that the best way to visit the middle of the Pacific Ocean is through an airplane flight or a boat ride, but through the use of live web cameras, you can easily visit Honolulu right from your home. You can view live and updated images of Waikiki beach, Kuhio Beach and other key locations in the city. You can also view the current and forecasted weather for Honolulu before planning your trip, especially if the trip is last minute. But to get a better idea of things to pack I think you can pretty much count on the weather always being enjoyable. When making arrangements for your trip you may also want to look at the current time in Honolulu, as the time between the Islands of Hawaii and the Mainland are different, and you want to be careful when making phone calls so you don’t end up calling in the early AM or late PM. If you just happen to be looking for a reason to go to Honolulu you might like to know about the Honolulu Community College, where you can attend class among paradise. The Community College is open to all ages and offers classes during fall, spring, and summer.
