Catch the 'Aloha' Spirit of Hawaii
From waterfalls to lava tubes, it doesn't take much to catch the 'aloha' spirit of Hawaii. The Hawaiian Islands are a popular year-round travel destination. With six islands to choose from, travelers have the opportunity to select the island(s) that appeal to their needs and interests.
Most Popular Islands
Oahu is home to popular landmarks such as Pearl Harbor. It is also home to the infamous Waikiki Beach, offering great snorkeling, kayaking as well as world class golf courses.
The Big Island is most recognized for its black lava deserts and Volcano National Park. The Big Island also offers amazing green and black sand beaches.
Maui offers a laid back island experience. It's easy to relax and enjoy the natural beauty of this island, whether by horseback riding on the beach or hiking to waterfalls.
Hidden Gems
With amazing rainforests, majestic cliffs and spectacular golden beaches, Kauai is a paradise within paradise. The island offers a variety of activities, from zip line adventures to helicopter tours featuring the grand waterfalls of the Waimea Canyon.
Hawaii with Kids
The Hawaiian Islands are kid friendly. Programs for children and their associated costs vary. Some resorts charge for children's programs, while others, such as Disney's Aulani, include it in the nightly rate.
When taking kids to Hawaii, it's a good idea to plan major sightseeing activities in advance and leave beach and/or pool days in between.
AAA Travel also recommends working with a travel agent. Their advice can go a long way to helping you plan a perfect Hawaii experience.
