This Aerial Footage Of Hawaii Showcases The Natural Beauty Of The Aloha State
Sometimes we get so caught up with work and complaining about the horrific traffic on H-1 that we neglect to look around and appreciate the magnificent island many of us call home: Oahu. Known as the Gathering Place, this small island may be home to nearly one million residents, but that doesn’t mean you won’t find natural beauty nearly everywhere you look. From waves crashing against the north shore and kayaks resting on the dreamy Mokulua Islands to hikers exploring Ko’olau Mountains and the skyscrapers of Waikiki, this stunning drone footage of Hawaii, shot by Ryan De Seixas, is absolutely breathtaking. Even if we hiked to the island’s highest peaks, we would never be able to experience the surreal, picturesque views featured in this drone footage of Hawaii for ourselves. Ready to fuel your wanderlust?
We are indeed lucky to call such a beautiful island paradise home. Tell us in the comments below: how many of these jaw-dropping landmarks did you recognize immediately from this stunning video of Hawaii? How many have you visited for yourself?
