On our second full day on Oahu, Grainne and I turned our morning into a pure leg-day workout day by going to the Koko Crater Tramway Trail and climbing up the tramway tracks to the top of the hill to get another beautiful view of Oahu. There are 1,048 steps to get to the top and in some areas it felt like a pure stair climb.

After the tramway hike, we went back to the hotel to meet up with Jack and Mary before heading to our snorkeling excursion. I would say the snorkeling was only OK as the area they took us to wasn’t very populated with fish but that didn’t really end up mattering since we had such a fun time on the boat. The boat that we were on could hold over 30 people on it, but since we were at the end of the season, only 11 people had signed up. It basically felt like our own private boat. In addition, we had a really fun time jumping off the boat and into the water. The cherry on top is we did eventually see a turtle swimming near our boat!

We were out there for 3 hours and just had a really nice time hanging out with each other and just messing around on the boat. When we got back to the hotel, we just walked around and ended up getting a really nice dinner at one of the other hotels in Ko Olina.
