Seems Oahu gets picked on a lot for some reason in this forum - but, we get the best beach!!!

"A tourist-friendly beach named for a Hawaii surfing legend has been dubbed the best public beach in the United States in this year's Dr. Beach ranking.


Duke Kahanamoku Beach, a well-groomed crescent of blond sand and palm trees near the Hilton Hawaiian Village Waikiki Beach Resort, beat out more than 600 other beaches for the distinction."


Let the hating begin.

I think everyone knows the "Dr Beach" rankings are nothing more than annual publicity for this guy. But more power to him, he has turned being a beach bum into a lucrative career. That I had been so smart.

"Once a beach wins, Leatherman retires it from consideration for future lists."

Well that explains a lot.
