Hawaiian island is made

Hawaiian Volcanoes [ TEXT ONLY ] Hualalai Haleakala Lo`ihi Hawaiian Volcanoes The Hawaiian Islands are at the southeastern end of a chain of volcanoes that began to form more than 70 million years ago. Many of these volcanoes formed islands that have subsided and eroded beneath sea level, and some of the old volcanoes probably never reached sea level. Each Hawaiian island is made of one or more volcanoes, which first erupted on the sea floor and only emerged above the ocean's surface after countless eruptions. The largest and most southeastern island of the chain, Hawai`i, consists of five volcanoes. Kilauea, Mauna Loa, and Hualalai have erupted in the past 200 years. Lo`ihi, the youngest volcano of the Hawaiian Volcanic Chain, is still about 1,000 meters beneath the ocean's surface. East Maui Volcano, commonly known as Haleakala, on the island of Maui, is the only other Hawaiian volcano to have erupted since the late 1700's. Origin of the Hawaiian Island Volcanic Chain An overview of "hot spots" and thermal plumes in the Earth's mantle is provided in this online USGS booklet about Plate Tectonics. Map of the southeastern or "windward" Hawaiian Islands. The islands owe their existence to a "hot spot" in the Earth's mantle that has changed location only slightly over the past 70 million years. This hot spot is located beneath the southeastern part of Hawai`i. Countless eruptions of lava fed by the hot spot built volcanoes that eventually grew above sea level to form islands. But the volcanoes didn't continue to erupt, because the seafloor on which they were built was continually moving northwestward across the hot spot at a rate of 7-9 cm per year. Eventually each volcano was torn away from the hot spot and carried northwestward, just as a conveyor belt moves material from one location to another. Such is the fate for the active volcanoes on the Big Island, though they will be replaced by new volcanoes, of which Lo`ihi is the first born. Hawai`i | Lo`ihi | Kilauea | Mauna Loa | Hualalai | Mauna Kea | Kohala | Maui | West Maui Volcano | East Maui Volcano (Haleakala) | Kaho`olawe Lana`i Moloka`i | West Moloka`i Volcano | East Moloka`i Volcano | O`ahu | Koolau Volcano | Waianae Volcano | Kaua`i Ni`ihau Map of the Hawaiian Islands, a chain of volcanoes that stretches about 2,700 km in a northwesterly direction from the Island of Hawai`i. The age of the volcanoes that form the islands increases progressively from Hawai`i, where the volcanoes are still active, to the northwest end, where the volcanoes are about 30 million years old. The chain of volcanoes continues as seamounts for another 3,000 km; the chain bends sharply to the northward about 700 km beyond this map and becomes the Emperor Seamounts.

In the Vancouver, Washington and Portland, Oregon area Aloha, Several years ago, I moved from Honolulu to Vancouver, WA (near Portland OR). I found myself craving for the "local Hawaiian food" I left behind. Every chance I have, I return home and the first thing I do is eat at my favorite local Hawaiian restaurants. The cultural mix in Hawaii is amazing. The Hawaiians, Chinese, Japanese, Portuguese, Filipinos, Thai and the Koreans all have made valuable contributions to Hawaii's multicultural society. And because we have this Asian and Polynesian blend, Hawaii has become a "gathering place" for chefs to practice their craft. The festive culinary possibilities are endless. But, nobody can argue, home-cooked meals are the best. Most people would have to agree that their favorite foods are the ones that mom and dad would make for them at home. They bring happy memories back to us when we eat them. We would like to share not only our "home-cooked" meals, but more important, the "Spirit of Aloha" with you, your friends, your family and the world. Mahalo, Patrick Need to email me?

Maui Windsurfing Vans: 800-870-4084

Windsurfing Maui A-Z Windsurfing Maui A-Z Apr 16, 2004 / Community Maui By Frank "SIMS" Bingel Much has been said and written about Maui, but there remain many untold stories and emotions associated with this windsurfing mecca. Look down and the water is the deepest of blues. Look to your left and you see people taking lessons. Look far to your right and you see pros throwing loops off nothing. Everyone who has had the good luck to sail at Maui long enough (including myself) has a great story to tell, in fact, many great stories . . . breaking or losing half of their sailing equipment on the infamous and dreaded Hookipa "rocks" and the feeling of absolute terror in the impact zone with not a breath of wind in your sail.On a given day, Maui has a greater variety of sailing conditions for all levels of boardsailors than anywhere in the world. Maui's motto says it all :"MAUI NO KA OI". Translated it's :Maui is the best.This is truly a place designed for Windsurfing. Sailing Conditions: For those looking for high winds: visit Maui in the summer. From May to August, the northeast trade winds average 15 to 25 miles/hr, with many days in the 20 to 30 mile/hr range. The summer is also when the wave swell is at its smallest. For those who are looking for Maui's famous surf: visit it when there are both trades and waves - spring (March to May) and fall (September to November). From December to February, the northeasterlies are less consistent, but there are still great sailing days during this time - big wave days especially! During the winter, Kona storms will bring in 10-to 20-knot southwesterlies to the south shore. The sailing is side-onshore, port tack, with conditions similar to lake sailing. Another typical winter occurrence is 5-to 15-knot northerlies. These winds funnel between the West Maui Mountains and the Haleakala Crater creating great side-offshore, slalom sailing on the south shore. KANAHA BEACH PARK - Kanaha is a beautiful beach park with long, sandy beaches, grassy area for rigging, fresh water showers, shading trees, and picnic tables, all located in Kahului on the northshore. Sideshore northeast tradewinds blow consistently during June - August, with typically flat water sailing on the inside, and good bump and jump conditions on the outside. Between October and May you can find waves on the outside reefs, ranging from small wind swell to expert wave riding conditions. Most windsurf schools operate at Kanaha because of the consistent wind and warm water. All year round it is a perfect place for any level sailor. SPRECKELSVILLE / CAMP ONE - Up the coast from Kanaha there is a residential area called Spreckelsville which has many beautiful sandy beaches. The main area to sail is affectionately known as "Sprecks", which provides pristine blue-green water and white sandy beach. Parking is limited, so arrive early. There are no facilities or showers. The sailing level is typically intermediate to advanced, with the reef making for more chop and breaking waves. Camp One is a no frills beach at the end of the Kahului Airport runway. The place has no showers, no grass rigging areas, no toilet, and barely a trash can. It does have a beautiful beach and the only breaking waves for most of the summer. The place is frequented by German's, Australians, Italians, French and local windsurfers. It's a place where you want to be polite and follow the local traditions and laws to the letter. HOOKIPA - Hookipa is the windsurfing mecca of the world. Host to World Cup sailing and surfing contests, Hookipa rips. Jagged lava rock, exposed reefs, a gnarly shorebreak, light inside winds and powerful rip currents make this north shore difficult to launch off limits for most sailors. Experts launch from the Beach Park, just downwind from the pavillion. Expect crowds, with many sailors lulling around the outside and looking for a good wave to rip on the inside. When the water flattens in the summer months, slalom sailors launch here at Hookipa and blast downwind along the north shore. KIHEI - Kihei is the south shore's most popular windsurfing spot. When the tradewinds blow north/northeast the pavillion located at the intersection of Ohukai Street and South Kihei Road is a great place to sail. The reef can be shallow on the inside, especially near the Maui Sunset, so consult the locals before venturing out. Kihei is good for all level sailors and has a variety of accommodations nearby!
