Hawaii
America's Pacific Island Paradise
Hawaii Overview
Surf safari, honeymoon, golf junket, family vacation, dive trip... whatever the reason for the visit, the Hawaii Islands are America's favorite escape plan. It's all about choices—from languid beach time to high-energy water sports; big-city chic to small island charm; and five-star luxury or guest house authenticity. And it's about contrasts. Tropical lagoons are shadowed by snow-capped peaks. Championship golf courses and five-star resorts are a short drive away from working cattle ranches. You can hike through the arid landscape of a volcanic crater or visit the wettest place on earth. And surrounding it all are the warm, clear waters of the Pacific Ocean, where adventures await.
Diving
Explore submerged lava tubes and cathedral-like grottoes formed when molten lava met the sea. Count more than 200 species of fish found nowhere else in the world. Swim with turtles, frolic with dolphin and watch huge manta rays dive and swoop through pools of light during night dives.
