Enjoy the summer at Lanikai Beach, Haiwaii🏝️

I am a beach person so going to Lanikai Beach was definitely on the list for me! It’s truly a beautiful beach with extremely nice view. This was a nice and relaxing beach to visit. Of course this pretty place would attract lots of tourists and locals, so be ready for a popular spot. Do take note that there aren’t any amenities, stores, or rental spots around so bring with you everything you’ll need. It’s a nice spot to swim, relax, and snorkel.
In 2024, I want to visit Bondi Beach in Australia 🇦🇺!

Lanikai Beach is a real gem of the Hawaiian islands with so much to offer ! I have again a peaceful and tranquil experience unlike any other beaches 🏖️The beach has been ranked as one of the best beaches in the world, and for good reason. The stunning scenery and crystal-clear waters make it the perfect spot for swimming, sunbathing, and relaxing. It’s so relaxing to take a leisurely stroll along the shore, soak up the sun ☀️ on the soft sand. I definitely want to visit this beach again!

🩵 Family Vacation with a little one 🩵
🩵 Our family vacation in Lanikai Beach, Hawaii was an unforgettable experience, especially with our energetic and curious one-year-old baby. The breathtaking white sandy beach, crystal-clear turquoise waters, and gentle ocean breeze provided the perfect backdrop for our adventures. We spent our days building sandcastles, splashing in the shallow waves, and exploring the vibrant coral reefs with our little one. The baby's giggles filled the air as we strolled along the shoreline, enjoying the stunning views of the Mokulua Islands. The warm Hawaiian sun embraced us as we shared precious moments as a family, creating cherished memories that will last a lifetime.

Hawaii's most beautiful beach, elope to the end of the world.
Lanikai Beach, located on Oahu Island in Hawaii, is one of the best beaches in the United States and one of the top 10 beaches in the world, along with Seychelles, Maldives, and others. It only takes a 10-minute drive from Kailua Beach Park to get to Lanikai Beach.
Lanikai in Hawaiian means "heavenly sea", with crystal clear and dreamy blue water.

Relief and Freedom: How Receiving My Green Card in the US Has Changed My Life
Today was the happiest day of my life. Finally, after a 2 year long wait our green cards were approved.
I moved to America almost five and a half years ago and only now I can stop being afraid that I will have to leave this country and go back to Russia. The wait was excruciating, especially last year. Back in May I was laying on my bed crying and checking the news feed every hour thinking what else that evil anti-immigrant administration could come up with and if all high skilled professional immigration is going to be stopped all together. I’ve been living in a constant fear and anxiety that if I go abroad I might not be able to come back to the place I call home.
But now the wait is over and I can breathe again and my nightmares about being sent back to Siberia have stopped. We are finally free and will be able see our families and travel abroad again. And I can’t wait to do that! 🥂🇺🇸

A little early morning paddle in the Pacific. These boaters were headed out to this island off the coast of Lanakai beach in Hawaii.
