Oahu is a great island too of you get out of waikiki. North shore is surfers paradise, pipeline beach the swells hit 30 feet! Breakneck beach on the other side is fantastic to body board. There is a bird sanctuary on an island you can sea kayak to just off one of the longest beaches I've ever seen! Tons of plantations to visit, pearl harbor of that interests you, diamond head, the zoo, rainforests, the polynesian center, ... Oahu is fantastic too yet most people just hang in honolulu and miss all the cool stuff.
last time I was there we rented a cabin on the north shore across from pipeline beach for a steal. We'd buy fresh food from the market our even the side of the road (ago tuna for cheap!) and bbq at the cabin or on the beach. Everyday we'd pick a different beach to visit cause they are all within a few hours driving.
