Well, trueexcept for the fact that Hawaii is actually in the North Pacific Even as the late as the 1950s, few visitors to the islands ventured far beyond the comfortable surroundings of Honolulu and legendary Waikiki Beach on the island of Oahu From museums to nightlife, Honolulu is the cultural crossroads of the Pacific Rim But there is another Hawaii on five neighboring islands, each with its own character and its own, unique aloha spirit Maui, with its miles of exemplary beachfront resorts is the most popular of the outer islands And if you can drag yourself away from the sand (or the sand traps at several superb golf courses), there are few views in the world that can top those from the summit of Haleakala volcano and few drives that can match the spectacular, winding coastal road to Hana Kauai is often called the Garden Isle, but it's the islands beaches and the incredible cliff-lined Napali Coast that visitors usually talk about. And while Kauai, like her sister islands, is best seen from the water (catamaran, surfboard, outrigger canoe for starters), the hiking here is unforgettable. The Big Island (as the locals call it) is Hawaii at its most dramatic, from red-hot lava flowing to the sea at the worlds most active volcano to stunning waterfalls. For those looking for a little less drama, relaxing is no effort at luxury resorts scattered along the Kona-Kohala coast. Once a pineapple plantation in the sea, Lanai is now home to a pair of upscale resorts one in the mountains, one at the sea each with a top-rated championship golf course. Development has mostly bypassed Molokai, and thats much of the islands charm. Riding a mule down the steep switchback trail to Kalapapa is a long-standing tradition, and longtime visitors know this is still an island where some of the best beaches have no footprints for days at a time Oahu Maui Kauai Big Island Lanai Molokai Home • Island Destination Search • Travel Deals • Islands Magazine Weddings & Honeymoons • Desktop Images • Contact Us • Employment Opportunities Please visit our other World Publications websites: Caribbean Travel Planner | Cruising World Discover St. Thomas & St. John | Resorts & Great Hotels | Saveur | Spa | Sportdiver © 2005 World Publications
