Overview
The Hawaiian Islands are slices of paradise in the Pacific, a lush archipelago of hundreds of islands stretching across 1,500 breathtaking miles. Only six of these majestic isles, Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, Lanai, Maui, and the Island of Hawaii (popularly known as “The Big Island”) are currently open to the public.
From Maui’s 10,023-foot-high volcano, Haleakala, to the colorful creatures swimming beneath the clear turquoise seas of Oahu’s Hanauma Bay, Hawaii offers a bounty of natural wonders waiting to be explored. The spirit of aloha infuses every waterfall, flower, and smile on these magical isles. Each island possesses a unique personality; all hold the promise of a picture-perfect vacation.
The state’s capital city, Honolulu, meaning “sheltered harbor,” offers a microcosm of island life, from the bustling beaches, shops, and restaurants of Waikiki to one of the most photographed backdrops in the world, iconic Diamond Head.
Even the air smells sweeter in Hawaii, infused with fragrant fields of pineapples and brightly colored plumeria and hibiscus. From the Big Island’s Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, where an island is still being born, to Kauai’s ancient Na Pali cliffs, rising majestically out of the Pacific, amazing adventures await around every breathtaking turn.
