Diamond Head’s English name was given by British sailors in the 19th century who mistook calcite crystals in the rock for diamonds. As a volcanic tuff cone, Diamond Head is a defining feature of the view known to residents and tourists of Waikiki alike. As a United States State Monument, it also serves as platform for antennas used by the U.S. government that also built Fort Ruger in the crater. Diamond Head’s proximity to Waikiki’s various resorts and hotels makes it one of the island’s most popular attractions. On most days, the hike along the crater’s rim is clogged with hikers looking for unparalleled views of the mountain, ocean, and beautiful Waikiki region.
Although the crater itself is a popular destination, Diamond Head is also a serene and glitzy neighborhood, tailored to the needs of the high-end residents that live in the pricey houses on the slopes of the crater. Residents of Diamond Head real estate homes or condominiums for sale enjoy the excitement of Waikiki without the noise and business of living on its busy streets. Additionally, residents can take advantage of some of Hawaii’s finest dining and clubs. Just a leisurely walk from Kapiolani Park and the beaches of Waikiki, Diamond Head offers a completely different world for people looking to escape the busy Hawaiian days without being too far from work in Honolulu. A large percentage of Diamond Head residents are wealthy retirees and top-level managers at Hawaii’s large local corporations. Additionally, Diamond Head’s phenomenal weather doesn’t see much rain make the neighborhood even more desirable. With the waves of the Pacific crashing below and proximity to Kahala’s empty beaches, Diamond Head is a true paradise for those who live in the area.
