I would love to go to Hawaii, but I was wondering if you dislike the beach and tours what fun things are there to do on the islands. And what is the best way to go from island to island.Anyone who has been there, or live there Please HELP :)Thanks in advance!!!!!!
I will warn you of one place not to go, Kauai Hanali Bay, the life guards are total a--holes. But there is something to do everywhere. Every island has great scuba, snorkeling, whale watching, dinner cruising, great night life, great bars. The islands I recommend are Oahu, stay at the Hilton Hawaiian Village Resort on Waikiki beach. You do not have to rent a car to go there, take a taxi and get his cell number. He will pick you up and drop you off anytime any where you want. Go to the top of Diamond head, snorkel at Hanoma bay, see the International market place, see the Aloha Center downtown business center, go to Pearl Harbor. You can get activity info at any tourist center, they will have pamphlets for that. There is also activity booths where you can discount packages too. Go to Maui, stay in Lahina at a condo. Drive to the top of Mauna Kea (I think that is the name) take the road to Hana, see the winery when you come back. There are great restaurants and touristy things to do in Lahina. Go to Kauaii, stay at a rental house, there are many great restaurants and local bars to hang out at. See the Wimaia (sp) valley, it looks like the grand canyon, but its fun to go there. Take a snorkel trip, do a zip line adventure. You can see the old whaling village, it only takes about 50 min to go from one side of the island to the other. Always take in the touristy shops, and bring or buy a big suite case to haul your stuff back in. Get as much Kona coffee, and Macadamia nuts as you can. On all the islands you can get Fire rock beer, it is a great micro brew from the islands. I would give you more, but that would keep you going for two weeks at least. It only costs about $50 for inter island flights, so just do that. Have fun and Aloha.
Learn to dance, go to a luau, eat, explore the forests (with a group of course), rock climb, traverse and learn about the volcanos, scuba dive, and have an overall amazing time! :)
Eat. I m sure they have some good exotic foods, and probably some good restaurants. That s my thing, whenever I go to a new place, I gotta check out the eats.
