Sunrise at Diamond Head

Start your morning in Hawaii here 🌴🐦 📌 Diamond Head requires reservations 🎫‼️ 👉 You need to book online in advance 📱 Be aware that you cannot enter if you just show up on the day ⚠️ 🏖️ Atmosphere It’s very crowded! Some locals use it as a running course, so be mindful while climbing ⛰️. At 6 AM, it’s pitch dark, but it gradually gets brighter! On the way back, the temperature rises, and it gets quite hot 🫠. 🕰️ Hours: From 6 AM The season for viewing the sunrise is said to be from mid-November to mid-March (winter to spring) 😌. I climbed it on February 24, 2025 🌅. 🎒 Don’t forget comfortable shoes, water, and a flashlight (essential when it’s dark)! ⚠️ According to the official website, even two weeks in advance, it might be hard to get a reservation for the sunrise 🌅 time slot 🥹. In such cases, consider booking a sunrise tour, though it’s pricier. Tour companies seem to reserve a certain number of slots for the 6:00 AM entry at Diamond Head ✨. I managed to book a reservation even the day before! 💰 Price per person • Adults: $5 per person (Free for children under 3)  🚗 If arriving by car • **$10 per vehicle** (including parking fee)  • Commercial vehicles (e.g., tour buses): • 1–7 passengers: $25 per vehicle • 8–25 passengers: $50 per vehicle • 26+ passengers: $90 per vehicle  The Diamond Head sunrise tour I joined Cost: ¥9,677 per adult Includes transportation and admission fee 😌
