Pearl Harbor & Leeward O‘ahu
Hundreds of vendors encircle Aloha Stadium at this famous market. Your eyes will soon cross at the plethora of gaudy souvenirs, cheap T-shirts ($7!), loudly patterned clothes in unnatural fibers, plastic orchids, phone cases and fad foods (think turmeric). Amidst it all are some interesting handmade items and fresh fruit vendors. Bus 42 passes close by from Waikiki.
Despite the posted hours, many vendors don't get set up until after 9am. Admission to the market is $1 for adults, free for kids.
