    When I was stationed on Schofield, we were told not to go to Waianae at night because the locals didn't like the military. I went there a few times in the daytime, and the locals were cool with me because I was cool with them. But that is the whole island. Like you said, if you give respect, you will get respect. I love going back to O'ahu to vacation.

    • @WanderlustWellman

    • @naten555
      @naten555 Před 5 měsíci +2

      Waianae is the last part of the island that is truly locals. They are protective. There's not much over there anyways.

    • @terryd2188
      @terryd2188 Před 5 měsíci +1

      @WanderlustWellman That could be the reason. It's sad to say, but everywhere that the US Military goes, some of the people in it think that the locals need to conform to them when actually we should just learn the ways of that culture. I had a lot of fun being in HI, and I think that's why I enjoy going back so much.

    Question on transportation options: Rent care VS Public transportation (Taxi, bus, etc)
    Especially for visiting places like Lanai beach, what would be your recommendation?
    Less emphasis on $$$, but I'm curious on how much more convenient rent cars would be regarding parking situation etc.
    Would using public transportation be limiting to visit or experience certain places?

    • @WanderlustWellman
      @WanderlustWellman  Před 3 měsíci

      Great question! If money isn’t a big consideration, I 100% recommend renting a car. Taxis/ubers are going to be very expensive to get around the island anyway, so you might as well have complete freedom to explore with a car. Some locations might have more limited parking (Lanikai Beach), but you can still find space if you’re patient (or park at Kailua and walk over).
      You can certainly get by with public transportation, but it will take quite a while to get to certain parts of the island (north shore, west side).

    We have been to Oahu several times and Lanakai wasn’t our favourite beach. Would rather go to Kailua or Waimanalo Beach. We certainly didn’t find it great snorkeling. Very cloudy. Way better beaches in Oahu

    • @WanderlustWellman
      @WanderlustWellman  Před 10 dny

      Appreciate your opinion! I'm kicking myself that I never visited Waimanalo Beach, because I drove past it many times and everyone says really good things about it. I do like smaller beaches though, and I can confidently state the snorkeling by Lanikai is much better than Kailua. But that's just from my own experience :)
