Some of the world's largest surfing competitions are held on the beaches of North Shore on the Hawaiian island of Oahu.

Other than the surfing competitions, North Shore offers the Polynesian Culture Center and the Waimea Valley Audobon Center where they enjoy some of the best nature that Hawaii has to offer.

The Polynesian Cultural Center is Hawaii's most popular attraction that is privately owned. Here, villages of seven Polynesian cultures: Fiji, the Marquesas, New Zealand, Samoa, Tahiti, Tonga and Hawaii are recreated.

The students of Brigham Young University Hawaii share their culture, art and dance here. There are many activities at the Polynesian Cultural Center including the afternoon canoe pageant which is one of the center's most popular attractions.

North Shore definitely has something for everyone. If you are visiting in the winter, you can marvel at the incredibly high waves on the beach while summer time offers some of the best days for simply hanging out by the ocean. Many tour companies provide round-trip bus transportation, so you can stay anywhere on the island and visit North Shore with ease!
