Trail & Summit: Diamond Head’s unique profile, known locally as Le‘ahi, marks the eastern edge of Waikiki’s coastline. The hike to its summit is a favorite among visitors and locals, featuring a trail, steep staircase, and a tunnel leading to a historic wartime bunker. Reaching the top rewards hikers with breathtaking views of Honolulu, the Pacific Ocean, and the island's eastern shore.
Historical Significance: This iconic crater, formed around 300,000 years ago, showcases Hawaii’s geological and military history. The 0.8-mile trail to the summit, built in 1908 for O‘ahu’s coastal defense, includes switchbacks, a lighted tunnel, and a Fire Control Station from 1911. At the top, visitors find military bunkers and a lighthouse built in 1917.
Natural Beauty: From the summit, enjoy panoramic views from Koko Head to Wai‘anae. During the winter, lucky visitors may even spot passing humpback whales.
