One of the most peaceful drives on Oahu is just minutes from the bustle and congestion of Honolulu. Tantalus Drive winds its way into the hills of the Honolulu Forest Reserve at the foothills of the Koolau Mountain range which hems Honolulu into the coast. Rising to a summit of 2000 feet, Tantalus Drive offers spectacular views of Downtown Honolulu, Waikiki Beach and Pearl Harbour. There are several walking trails into the forest reserve which offer real solitude and a glimpse of the verdant tropical forest and flora.
