After visiting National Pacific Cemetery we decided to take a right hand turn and drive the Tantalus/Round Top Drives before returning to Honolulu. This is a famous road with many hairpin turns that are featured in car chases in the original Hawaii-50, Magnum PI and a number of movies. It's fun to drive, but also has some terrific lookoffs.

Beautiful wide panorama view of Diamond Head, Waikiki, Honolulu, Pearl Harbor, and everything in between! Took my breath away. Grounds of park are well kept and there is a picnic area nearby. No hike required to see fabulous views!

We opted for this drive instead of hiking Diamond Head. The drive wasn't far from Waikiki. When we got to the top there were several parking areas to take pictures and enjoy the view of the island. It was free and you can't beat that in Hawaii! Absolutely breath taking. When we got to the final overlook there was a...

We drove round top abd Tantalus and the views were just wow. That was until we saw the view from the lookout here. This is not to be missed. Don't even think about passing it by.
