After college, she chose to trade in her winter boots for slippahs and moved to the beautiful island of Oahu, where she has been living for more than five years. She lives on the west side but is constantly taking mini-road trips across the island and visits the neighboring islands whenever she can getaway. She loves hiking, snorkeling, locally-grown coffee, and finding the best acai bowl on Oahu.
What the Hawaiian Islands lack in the luxuries of mainland shopping, they make up for with beautiful beaches, stellar views and a laid-back lifestyle, as well as a few incredible flea markets and swap meets. Whether you’re looking for a good bargain, a unique treasure, or simply a fun way to spend a weekend afternoon, you won’t be disappointed at the Aloha Stadium Swap Meet.
The Aloha Stadium Swap Meet opened in 1979 and has since become the state’s largest open-air flea market, featuring more than 400 vendors, crafters, and artists from around the world.
While you will undoubtedly find the Aloha Spirit around every corner, it is unfortunately not something that can be bought. What is for sale, however, includes gorgeous plants and flowers…
If you tire of shopping the seemingly endless rows of bargains, take a break and grab a bite to eat from one of the many vendors. You can find everything from shave ice and sweet Hawaiian fruits to hearty island favorites like kalua pork and loco moco.
The most popular swap meet in the Hawaiian Islands, visitors could easily spend an entire Saturday exploring this massive market — and still come back for more on Sunday.
The Aloha Stadium Swap Meet is, of course, located at the Aloha Stadium (the address is 99-500 Salt Lake Blvd, Honolulu, HI 96818). This massive event is held every Wednesday, Saturday, and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. For more information, visit their website.
