Incredible Travel Planner - See the videos
and then plan a spectacular vacation to a
land of incredible beauty and fun. The
following is a short overview of this
enchanting paradise.
Oahu - See Honolulu, Waikiki, the north shore
& the Bonsai Pipeline; pineapple fields;
Waikiki Aquarium with reef sharks, sea
dragons; the Polynesian Cultural Center with
dances by native Fiji, Tahiti and other
Polynesians. The Bishop Museum has the cloak
of Kamehameha, Hawaii's most famous ruler. It
was made from feathers of 60,000 birds. At
the museum also see models of whaling ships,
which were based in Hawaii in the 19th
century when they hunted whales throughout
the Pacific.
Maui - This island has beautiful golden
beaches, shopping and spectacular golf
courses. Or take the challenging drive to
Hana with its dramatic waterfalls, lush
rainforests, and picture perfect views, plus
the 7 sacred pools, which almost look like
the Garden of Eden. Mount Haleakala is
called the House of the Sun and at the top of
this mountain, you'll see a crater, which is
bigger than Manhattan. It's over 2 miles
wide and 7 miles long. For a unique
challenge take a bike ride down - one of
world's longest downhill bike rides. Iao
Valley is one of Hawaii's most spectacular
sites. In fact, it's so beautiful that it's
been called the Yosemite of the Pacific.
Inside the center of this heavenly valley is
the stunning Iao Needle, which rises over
1200 feet. Nearby there's a small park,
which pays tribute to Hawaii's diverse
heritage, including immigrants who came from
Korea, Japan and China. There are gardens,
and pavilions.
The Big Island - You'll see Hawaii Volcanoes
National Park, and get a close up look at
these stunning displays of nature including
explosive volcanoes with lava flows. And see
the Thurston Lava tube, which was formed
after the lava flows, stopped. The cooler
outer layers hardened but the hotter inner
layers continue to empty out of the tubes.
Then see the town of Hilo, where many cruise
ships stop. Nearby are Rainbow Falls and also
an even much larger even more stunning
420-foot waterfall. Plus see Hawaii's most
sacred areas for their royalty, which
includes wooden guardians watching over a
sacred temple where over 20 chiefs were
buried. This is where there were ceremonies
for the high chief, his wives and warriors.
It is where Hawaii's chiefs both relaxed and
managed the country. Captain Cook was the
first European to land in Hawaii. Hawaiians
initially thought that he was a God, since
his impressive ships appeared during a sacred
festival. But quickly, they realized he was a
mere mortal. There were fights and Captain
Cook was killed. Coffee and bananas are
grown here and agriculture still plays an
important role in Hawaiian's economy. Also
Hawaii has cowboys -- that's right cowboys.
Mexicans came to Hawaii in the early 1800s to
herd cattle even before cowboys were common
in the Western U.S. The largest Ranch was
the Parker Ranch which at one point covered
almost half million acres. Since this is a
young island, it has only a few white sandy
beaches. And on this active volcanic island,
the sand can be black.
Kauai - See Waimea Canyon, Kauai's most
famous site. As you travel through this area,
you'll see waterfalls, which are over 700
feet high. Many filmmakers have used this
dramatic scenery for films such as Raiders of
the Lost Ark. The most popular resort along
the southern coast is Poipu Beach, which has
long stretches of golden sand. See the
coconut coast and the north shore near
Princeville. It's so impressive, that when
they made the movie "South Pacific', they
filmed it here. Further west at the end of
the road is the base of a 1300-foot cliff,
and it's where the Na Pali Coast begins.
