One of the most expensive neighborhoods to live in Hawaii, exactly because of the beautiful view of Mokoluas islands that dot the beach in Lanikai on the east coast of Oahu. Though pretty, most people enter the kayak or snorkel, because the front of the beach is jammed with mansions that enter the sea (the old real estate growth rampant as ever). Water has an unbelievable shade of blue and a coral reef full of attractions for those who want to dive.
