NORTH SHORE ATTRACTIONS
Only 28 miles from Waikiki is surf city:
Haleiwa
★, the funky ex-sugar-plantation town that's
the world capital of big-wave surfing. This beach town really comes alive in winter, when
waves rise up, light rain falls, temperatures dip into the 70s, and practically every surfer in the
world is here to see and be seen.
Officially designated a historic cultural and scenic district, Haleiwa thrives in a time warp
recalling the turn of the 20th century, when it was founded by sugar baron Benjamin Dilling-
ham, who built a 30-mile railroad to link his Honolulu and North Shore plantations in 1899.
