Dog Friendly Honolulu

Where To Stay, Walk, Eat And Drink With Your Dog In Honolulu

Honolulu is the capital of Hawaii, strung along the south shore of Oahu between the green Koolau mountains and the Pacific, with the crater of Diamond Head standing guard over Waikiki. The weather is warm every month of the year, the beaches run for miles and the trade winds keep the evenings soft. For a dog it is paradise with one piece of homework: Hawaii is free of rabies, so every dog flying in must clear the state's animal quarantine rules, and that paperwork is best started months ahead. Get it right and you have the easiest beach city in America at your feet.
