Honolulu, HI

united states

Honolulu sprawls along Oahu's south shore from Pearl Harbor to Diamond Head, connected by three main highways: H-1 running east-west through the city, H-2 heading north to the island's interior, and H-3 cutting through the mountains to windward Oahu. The airport sits 10 miles northwest of downtown via H-1, while local routes like the Pali Highway offer scenic mountain crossings. It's the only major U.S. city where you can surf at Waikiki Beach and see snow-capped peaks on a neighboring island the same day.
