Kailua is located on the island of Oahu. The name means “two seas” or “two currents” because of the two lagoons that run through Kailua Bay. Steady winds make this city a top destination for windsurfing and kitesurfing. Its world-famous white powder beaches, hiking trails and wetland preserves ensure property values stay sky-high.
Fun fact: President Barack Obama has vacationed with his family in Kailua Bay Beach, where he also visited as a child.
