If you look at a map of Oahu, you'll see that Waikiki is toward the South part of it. I live in Mililani which is in the center of the island, thus we call it Central Oahu. In Hawaii sometimes we use local terms like instead of saying West, we say Ewa (which is located toward the West of Oahu). It can be confusing for someone who does not live in Hawaii. :)
