• Start the tour taking the Pali to Kaneohe side.
• Stop at the Pali Lookout for an amazing view of the East side.
• From there continue along the Pali and turn left on Kamehameha Highway.
• You will pass Hawaii Pacific University’s Windward Campus;
• Ho’o something or another’s botanical garden (Near the Likelike Highway); and
• The Windward Mall.
• From there take the Kam Highway through the little villages and the greenery.
• While on the Kam Highway be sure to stop at the Macadamia Nut Farm
• While on the Mac Nut Farm, you can take a tour of the premises, you can sample the Mac Nuts and the Kona Coffee for FREE!
• If you take the tour, they will take you to the Hukelao Café or better known as the café from 50 first dates.
• Continue driving north on the Kam Highway. You can stop at Kualoa Beach Park to take pictures of Chinaman’s Hat and to also take pictures of the Ko’olau Mountain Range. This mountain range was featured in Jurassic Park. This is also a good site for a picnic.
• Across the street from Kualoa Beach Park is Kualoa Ranch. There you can go horseback riding or ATV (all-terrain vehicle) riding along the Jurassic Park back drop.
• From there continue north, you will eventually pass the Polynesian Cultural Center and the Mormon Temple. The Mormon Temple is a cool place to check out.
• Right after the PCC, turn right on a street called Anania (This street is located across for the shopping center with Foodland). Continue along this street until you hit a “T” in the road. From there, go right and continue until you hit the end of the road.
• This is the Laea Point. Here you can see amazing rock formations with historic value. I have seen sea turtles and mana rays in the water here. This is an ideal place for pictures.
• From there continue along the Kam highway heading west. You will eventually pass by a shrimp truck called Giovanni’s. Though it looks like a shady eatery, this place has famous garlic shrimp that has been featured in National Geographic a while back.
• Contine along the Kam Highway, you will pass the Turtle Bay Resort, Sunset Beach and Pipeline (where all of the surfing competitions go down), and Sharks Cove (a great place to snorkle and see Sea Turtles).
• I believe right before Waimea Bay you will see a Foodland. Make a left on the street right after food land. It will take you up a hill. Make the first right and it will take you through a jungly path with dips in the road a bazillion speed bumps. If you continue on this road until the end (no more than a half mile) it will take you to a haeau (or a religious structure where they used to conduct sacrifices).
• This place has great historic significance, has an amazing view of the ocean, and if you continue down the hiking path (a 10-minute hiking path) you may see wild boar and an AMAZING view of Waimea Bay. On a clear day, you may even see Kaua’i.
• Head back toward the Kam Highway and continue west or south (I am not sure which direction you are heading at this time. I think it’s south). As you near Waimea Bay be sure to point out the spiral looking cage fence that was in Jurassic Park. You can park at Waimea Beach Park. Around November and December, the waves here become monstrous, it this is a great place to watch them. Here you can see a 30 foot cliff. This is a fun place to jump off of.
• After Waimea Bay, continue south and take a tour into the surfer town of Haleiwa. Here you can find a lot of good eateries:
• Matsumoto’s Shave Ice has the island’s famous Shave Ice (Matsumoto’s closes around 6 p.m. so hopefully you can make it);
• Cholos is a good Mexican restaurant (so I have heard);
• Pizza Bob’s is a good pizza, burger, pasta joint for decent meals for around $12 to $15 a person.
• After Haleiwa it’s time to start heading into town. Follow the signs toward town. If you take the route that heads toward’s Schofield Barracks, you should pass the Dole Plantation (though the Dole Plantation might be closed by the time you get there).
• Here you can try the pinapple ice cream;
• Feed the massive koi in the beautiful koi pond; or
• Take a tour through the pinapple maze.
• If you survive this tour, head back into town and pat yourself in the back. You will be exhausted by now.

Alright, I hope this tour helps you out. If you know of any other cool sites to add to this list let me know. You cannot do ALL of the things I mentioned on this tour, you will probably run out of time. So pick and choose depending on your time allowance.
