If you need proof, just take a gander at this incredible drone footage from Youtube user The World Travel Guy taken from high above the island.
From fine, white stretches of sand and the crystal clear waters of the Pacific Ocean…

Of course, we love Oahu’s tourist attractions like this pineapple maze at the famous Dole Plantation, but that’s not all you’ll see in this aerial tour of Oahu.

The video also features some off-the-beaten-path destinations, like the Kaniakapupu ruins. The now-abandoned summer home of Kamehameha III and Queen Kalama, this estate built in the 1840s and tucked away in the cool uplands of Nu’uanu Valley is strikingly beautiful.

Also showcased in this incredible footage are the whales you can often spot frolicking in the waters off the coast of Hawaii between December and April. We can’t get enough of this unique vantage point!
