CNN has released their list of “Top 10 beaches in the World,” and Concierge Realty is excited to announce that one of our favorite locations made it onto the list! Hawaii’s island of Oahu is represented by Lanikai beach, which ranked 8th in CNN’s ranking, and was the only beach in the United States to make the top 10.

In the native Hawaiian language, the word “Lanikai” means “heavenly sea”. This is the perfect name for this perfect beach. Warm and gentle waters meet a white sand beach in tiny waves of turquoise and cerulean. The waves are accompanied by light trade winds which create a cooling effect during a hot day on this popular island. The beach is great for relaxing on the sand or taking a swim in the crystal-clear water. Located on Oahu’s Windward coast, Lanikai Beach is a popular place to unwind. Be sure to bring your swimsuits and snorkel gear to enjoy a day at the beach that you will never forget.

In addition to Lanikai Beach, Oahu is also home to the famous beaches of Honolulu and Waikiki, and all three are within a short drive of each other.
