Diamond Head Crater is perhaps the most recognized geologic formation in the Hawaiian Islands. With the most recognized beach in Hawaii at its base (Waikiki Beach) it is no wonder that Diamond head is such an iconic feature. Rising to the height of 760 ft. above sea level the crater itself is almost perfect in its symmetry as the interior of its bowl is a well formed circle. It stands erect on Oahu's southernmost west facing shoreline and this landmark can be seen for miles from the sea or from the coastline facing in either direction.
