8. Experience a Polynesian Luau
Get a taste of Hawaiian culture! A Hawaiian experience is never complete without attending a Polynesian
Luau. It is a showcase of Hawaiian cuisine and culture through a feast of food
and entertainment. The usual native dishes served are the kalua pork and
teriyaki. You will also be delighted by the native entertainment- traditional
Polynesian music, fire dancers and hula dancers in grass skirts.
7. Go Volcano Watching
Because Hawaii is popular for its volcanoes both dormant and active, take a drive to the Volcanoes National Park located at the south of the
Big Island, where you can find two of the world's most fascinating volcanoes.
First, Mauna Loa, the world's largest dormant volcano, reaching up to 13,677
feet high. Second, Kilauea, an active volcano, which produces steam and flowing
lava and interesting volcanic formations. There are other volcanoes in Hawaii
that you may visit but these two are really noteworthy.
6. See Waimea Canyon
Waimea Canyon is located at the Koke'e State Park. It is the largest canyon in the Pacific and is even nicknamed as "the Grand Canyon of the
Pacific". It is around 10 miles long and 3,600 feet deep. The canyon is the
creation of centuries of floods due to the overflowing of the rivers of the
dormant Mount Waialeale. The walls of the canyon show traces of carving by
volcanic lava, creating interesting patterns and formations.
5. Watch whales and dolphins
If you want to see whales up-close, go to the Big Island between the months of December and April. Some areas of the coast attract
humpback whales after their migration in the cold regions. The island is also
home for other species like killer whales and sperm whales. If you want to see
dolphins instead, you can visit Oahu Island during the first week of May as
plenty of dolphins draw together off the coast.
4. Enjoy a Helicopter Ride
If Hawaii is beautiful up-close, it is also gorgeous from an aerial view. Take a helicopter ride to see a bird's eye view of the entire state of
Hawaii so that you will realize how such beautiful scenery can be packed in so
little an archipelago.
3. Try Snorkeling
Every island of Hawaii has its own share of sea life. However, of all sites, the crescent-moon-shaped
island of Molokini seen from the island of Maui tops them all. It is in fact a
marine life park, listed in the top 10 of the best snorkeling spots in the
world. There you can watch schools of color-adorned fishes, some species of
which are unique to Hawaii alone. There is also another option for those who do
not know how to snorkel. They can rent a boat with a glass bottom to view the
sea life underneath!
2. Chill out on the beach
How could a Hawaii vacation be called a "vacation" without the beach? Everywhere you go in Hawaii,
you see the beach, all in its sapphire waters and bleached sands. The most
popular beach in Hawaii is the Waikiki Beach, located at the south of Oahu and
the home of the most luxurious Hawaiian hotels. You have two choices in the
beach -to engage in action in some sea activities or just lie back, relax and
get a tan. Either way, you'll surely have fun!
1. Surf! Ride the Waves
Well, what else is on the top of the list? Surfing, of course! Hawaii is also very popular to surfers because of its waves. Although all of Hawaii
have beaches where you can surf, nothing is better than the North Shore. There,
waves can reach up to a height of 30 feet especially during the first and last 3
months of the year. If you are looking to learn how to surf, Maui is the choice
destination. Warm waters and gentle waves make this island a learner's
paradise.
A Hawaiian experience is truly unforgettable no wonder it keeps bringing in millions of tourists every year. What makes Hawaii more special is
the warmth and hospitality of the Hawaiian people. There is no other place in
the world where you are greeted with aloha and smiles. It truly is a tropical
heaven on earth!
