North Shore

The North Shore of Oahu holds a place in surfing history that few stretches of coastline anywhere in the world can match. The seven-mile miracle, running from Haleiwa to Sunset Beach, is home to breaks that have defined the sport for generations: Banzai Pipeline, Sunset Beach, Waimea Bay, and dozens of others that draw the world's best surfers each winter when the swells arrive. But the North Shore is more than its waves. Haleiwa, the charming surf town at its western end, is filled with locally owned restaurants, boutiques, art galleries, and the legendary shrimp trucks that draw a pilgrimage of their own. Turtle Bay Resort anchors the eastern end for those who want resort amenities alongside the laid-back North Shore experience. Gather's North Shore Oahu vacation rentals place you inside all of it, at whatever pace suits you best.
