[music]
I saw a yard-long fish. He was fatty.
He got close to me, like "blo-blo-blo."
I left. I freaked out!
They don't fear you. They get so close to you.
They just keep, you know, looking for food,
just swimming normally.
-They are my best friends.
-Oh, yeah? Your best friends? -Yeah
-Yeah? What did they tell you for you to think like that?
-They said, "You look good, Gordon." -Oh!
It's amazing!
[music]
Look at the line at this place.
Oh, my God!
-462. -Here.
-Here. -Thank you.
Here they claim to have the best malasadas in town.
So we're here to try.
We got the traditional ones.
They have no filling,
And I got one with cinnamon, too, to try.
Which one is which here because it's all the same!
It looks all the same.
Well, it's so hot.
Oh, this is heavy. I think this has a filling.
Yeah, this has a filling.
So, I guess that's cinnamon, so this is the traditional one.
So hot! It is so hot!
It's like it just came out of the oven.
Mmm! It is so fluffy!
It's so perfect.
Although there's no filling, this one here,
it is delicious.
Mmm!
This is even better than a donut
because it's so fluffy and so fresh.
So it is really worth it coming here.
It's delicious!
Do you like? -Uh-hmm.
Look at your mouth... [laughs.]
You're all dirty.
Am I, too?
[laughs]
So with or without filling?
-With. -Yeah?
You had what? The coconut? -Yeah.
-We got a car for the day.
Today we rented a car,
and this was the only one they had.
[music]
-Hi! -Hello!
-One moment, I'll get your receipt.
-Thank you. -Thank you.
Wow, this parking lot and the park around
are already so beautiful!
I can't imagine the beach!
This is Hanauma Bay,
and it's considered a great place for snorkeling.
I can understand why, look at all the coral reefs.
And the water, it seems so crystal clear.
Oh, my God! Look at this place!
-Hi. -Next in line.
-Two tickets, please.
-Two, $15. -Yeah.
Hanauma Bay has now reopened to the public following the shutdown during the pandemic.
But the price has increased to $12 per person
-Your receipt and two tickets,
orientation around the corner.
-Okay, thank you.
[music]
-Hi, guys! -Hi!
-Coming up a movie together with the orientation where people are lining up for... right there.
-Okay. -And then down to the beach.
-Thank you.
-Okay, thank you.
[music]
A really popular place, look at this!
This is a nature preserve, so there's a fee for you to get in.
And there's also an educational presentation about the importance
of not touching corals, not feeding the fish.
And do you see this tram?
They charge $1.25 each way if you want to go up and down,
or $2.50 to go up and down as many times as you want.
Only after that, you're ready for paradise.
[music]
That was the most beautiful thing ever
So many colored fish, big and small, some enormous.
I saw a yard-long fish. He was fatty.
He got close to me, like "blo-blo-blo"
I left, I freaked out! [laughs]
[music]
Here they have snorkeling equipment to rent,
you know, masks, fins, everything.
We brought our own, and if you don't have one,
I think it's even better to buy one at Walmart.
It'll be probably the same price as renting for two days, for example.
And it is so worth it because it's so beautiful,
you see all kinds of fish, colored fish,
like different species you'd never see anywhere.
And they don't fear you, they don't fear you.
They get so close to you. They're not afraid at all.
They just keep, you know, looking for food,
just swimming normally.
You forget about time there. You just start swimming.
You see all the corals, the fish. The water is crystal clear.
That was amazing.
Did the fish scare you away? -No.
-They're my best friends. -Oh, yeah? Your best friends?
-Yeah. -Yeah, what did they tell you
for you to think like that?
-They said "You look good, Gordon."
-Aw. You look like Sting? Did they say that?
-No -[laughs]
It's amazing how busy the beach is.
Look at how many people at the ocean.
And for the fish, same as nothing. Life as usual.
There's nothing for sale here, only up there in the parking level.
But if you bring your water bottle, there's a drinking fountain here.
[music]
-Oh!
-No way!
-Man: Lucas, let me get you in front of the seal.
We were just leaving, and a seal appeared here,
right here in shallow waters.
This place is amazing.
[music]
Halona Blowhole Lookout.
When you leave Hanauma Bay,
this is a nice place to stop for a quick view,
because there's something interesting that happens here.
Here when the wind is strong and the tide is high,
the ocean water comes underneath the rocks,
and it comes out like a geyser.
You need the perfect conditions,
it's not always that it is very intense.
So, see? There's a little bit over there.
It is so nice!
[music]
And there is this parking lot right here, very convenient.
if you're feeling like exercising, there's a nice hike you can do.
It's considered an easy hike, fully paved,
just a five-minute drive from the viewpoint,
but we're actually gonna hit another beach.
Look at how interesting the weather here in Hawaii.
Sunny over here, raining over there.
We're now in Lanikai, and here there's no public parking.
So during high season, it might be really difficult
to find a space here.
You got to park on the street like these cars.
And I was talking to people here,
you need to pay close attention to the no parking signs
because you can get a ticket.
[music]
The color of this water is unbelievable.
And back here, some amazing houses.
Now, it could also be a coincidence because it's now later,
but this is so much quieter,
compared to Hanauma Bay.
[music]
Feeling cold now? Oh, come on!
[laughs]
-Is the water cold? -It's cool.
-Colder than Hanauma Bay? -Yeah.
-Oh. -But not much.
Yeah, the water is slightly colder here.
Sand in the bottom, no rocks.
And your feet really go down.
Also, no fish here.
Oops!
You easily get used to the water.
You should better not sit in the car like this.
[laughs]
What an amazing day, so many beautiful places.
Before going back,
we just wanted to check out another beach very close to Lanikai.
Lanikai is right over there after that curve.
You see? Very close.
So here is already Kailua.
What's amazing here... the day is not even beautiful anymore,
it's cloudy, about to rain, it's already sprinkling.
And the color of this water, it is so impressive.
[music]
Both beaches here are perfect for standup paddle, kayaking,
Look at this, no waves.
Look at this green.
It's amazing.
[music]
Look at how much for parking here, close to Waikiki Beach.
20 dollars.
Look at this healthy meal now to close the day.
Fresh poke from the grocery store for less than $7.
I'm loving this!
[music]
During the day, you see these tiki torches like this everywhere,
but you think it's just decor, right?
At night, they're all lit. It's so beautiful!
After the beach, don't even think about staying at the hotel.
We just returned the car.
And if tomorrow, we needed the car again, we'd rent another one.
That's because most hotels in Waikiki charge a really expensive parking fee,
like $30,
so imagine $30 after $30 after $30 every day,
it's not worth it, unless you have plans for the evening.
We do have plans for the evening, but luckily,
we can just walk.
And look at what a nice walk.
Every night in Waikiki looks like a party,
but tonight is special.
Whoo-hoo!
[crowd cheering]
It is so nice!
Fireworks for free, organized by the Hilton Hotel.
Right here in front of the hotel, there's a lagoon.
You can come here even if you're not at the hotel.
You know, wow! You see the amount of people that were here!?
It is so nice!
Perfect way to end this day.
In the next video, you'll see Maui, then the Big Island.
And at the end of the trip, we come back to Oahu.
I'll show you the North Shore.
If you don't have...
