Diamond Head, on Waikiki’s doorstep, is the suburb bordering the iconic dormant volcano of the same name. It’s been our home for the last couple of years, and we absolutely love our neighborhood! It’s anchored by Monsarrat Avenue, stretching from east Waikiki Beach to the Diamond Head crater entrance. There are lots of cool things to do on this street, including eat.
Distance from Waikiki to Diamond Head: 5-minutes drive; 15-minutes walk
