Speech Outline:

I. INTRODUCTION:

Have you ever gone on vacation to a foreign land and, due to a lack of knowledge, find
you spent too much time wasting by the hotel swimming pool than going on a real
adventure? Many people choose Hawaii as a vacation destination, but not everybody
comes back home with a great story to tell which is why Ill be sharing my 5 tourist
must-sees on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. In my opinion your first visit to Oahu should
include an incredible underwater experience, a beautiful hike, a lesson in US history, a
pineapple oasis, and delicious roast pig with a fire show.


Preview: 5 Tourist Must-sees in Oahu Hawaii

Diamond Head (Beautiful Hike)

Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve (Amazing Snorkeling)

Pearl Harbor Tour (Historical Site)

Dole Plantation (Pineapple Everything!)

Polynesian Cultural Center (Authentic Luau Experience)


BODY:
1. Fight the jet lag and wake up at 5:30 am to start a hike at Diamondhead Natl Park.
A. one of the most incredible craters on the planet.
B. By hiking early you can watch the sun rise over the beautiful island paradise and
enjoy the salty sea air.

2. You dont have to be scuba certified to have an incredible underwater experience.
A. Hanauma Bay Nature Preserve will allow you to rent out snorkel gear and give
you access to a marine life that is usually only viewed through a National Geographic or
Discovery Channel camera lens.
B. Swim face-to-face with sea turtles, crabs, all manner of fish, and even some
whale if youre lucky. Hanauma bay has over 400 species of fish and it is known for its
abundance of sea turtles. Wikipedia
C. As nice as it is to see pictures and view documentaries about wildlife, nothing
compares to the added sensations that come from first hand experience.

3. December 7, 1941 is a day that will live in infamy. You may fall asleep during US
history lectures, but I guarantee the Pearl Harbor Memorial tour will keep your attention.
the USS Arizona Memorial is built over the sunken wreckage of the USS Arizona, the
final resting place for many of the 1,177 crewmen killed on December 7, 1941 when
Japanese Naval Forces bombed Pearl Harbor. The memorial is part of World War II
Valor in the Pacific National Monument.
A. Take a boat ride to see the USS Arizona Memorial and pay respects to the
fallen soldiers. The events of Pearl Harbor were a catalyst for full support and entry to
World War II.

4. Have you every wondered what it would be like if somebody made a Pineapple
themed dessert shop? Look no further that the Dole Plantation to satisfy that sweet tooth
and bring a smile to your face. Originally operated as a fruit stand beginning in 1950,
Dole Plantation opened to the public as Hawaiis "Pineapple Experience" in 1989.
Today, Dole Plantation is one of Oahus most popular visitor attractions and welcomes
more than one million visitors a year.
A. Canned pineapple, candied pineapple, pineapple ice cream, and chocolate
covered pineapple are only a few of the many varieties of delicious snacks you may
purchase.
B. Get lost in a giant pineapple maze and taste of the other varieties of tropical fruit
sold at the gift shop.

5. Polynesian Cultural Center- Hawaii vacation would be complete without an authentic
dose of island culture. The Polynesian Cultural Center is Hawaiis #1 visitor attraction,
with villages and exhibits representing the island cultures of Hawaii, Fiji, Aotearoa,
Samoa, Tahiti, Marquesas, Tonga, and Easter Island.
A. Traditions such as dress, music, history, food, ect.
B. Luau experience is well worth the money.
C. Samoan fire throwing show.

Conclusion :

Don't spend your entire Hawaii vacation at the hotel. Do take my advise and be
adventurous. I can promise you'll have an incredible story to tell when you get back
home.
