Hawaii Honeymoon locations - Hawaii Destination Weddings Advanced Search Africa | Asia | Canada | Caribbean | Central America | Europe | Mexico | South America | South Pacific | United States Romantic Getaways, Destination Weddings and Honeymoon Locations Hawaii Honeymoon Destinations Hawaii Honeymoon | Mexico Honeymoon | Fiji Islands Hawaii Overview Climate & Temperatures in Hawaii Hawaii Weddings Activities and Things to See in Hawaii Hawaiian Islands Oahu Big Island Kauai Maui Lanai Molokai Search for a Hawaii Honeymoon & Wedding Destination Overview of Hawaii For that truly romantic honeymoon vacation or destination wedding, Hawaii - the Aloha State - welcomes and seduces visitors with its plumera-scented sea breezes, the grace and beauty of the hula, and the warm, tropical blue ocean waters. Mark Twain declared Hawaii to be 'the loveliest fleet of islands that lies anchored in any ocean', and not even thirty years of mass tourism have managed to prove him wrong. Hawaii is a destination that can be either relaxing or filled with physical activity. Lounge by the pool of a world-class resort drinking the local fruit drinks, or explore the many wonders of all the Hawaiian Islands. Snorkel in an ocean of total clarity. Put your face to the breeze on a charter sail. If a physical vacation is what you seek, the surfing, diving, windsurfing and hiking doesn't get any better than in Hawaii. Explore the many wonders of the Polynesian culture of Hawaii. Dance the hula and enjoy succulent Island fare at an authentic luau. Listen to the beautiful tradition Hawaiian music, while sipping Mai Tais under a palm tree. It's easy to get lost in this wonderful tropical paradise. Hawaii Currency : U.S. Dollars Hawaii Language : English, pidgin & Hawaiian Hawaii Nationality: : 32% mixed ethnicity, 22% Caucasian, 22% Japanese, 12% Filipino, 5% Chinese, 1% Hawaiian Climate in Hawaii Average temperatures in Hawaii differ very little from winter to summer. Monthly average temperatures range from a high of 87.1 Fahrenheit and lows of 65.3 Fahrenheit. June through October is the hottest period, while rainfall is heaviest between December and March - neither extreme is worth worrying over. Hotel prices in Hawaii are lowest between April and mid-December. Weddings in Hawaii In Hawaii, romance is the very essence of life. From the sweet scents of night-blooming jasmine, to breath-taking sunsets, Hawaii is a perfect destination for your wedding and/or honeymoon vacation. Hawaii is world renown to be the number one destination for lovers. Weddings in Hawaii are frequently held outdoors on the beach, in a tropical garden, or even on a boat sailing off into the sunset. All the beaches in Hawaii are public, and both beaches and public parks are free to use for wedding ceremonies. However, don't expect to have a popular spot all to yourself. Most beaches and parks in Hawaii are not secluded and private. Hawaii has a wide range of musical styles and instruments. The slack key (a regional guitar style), the ukulele and steel guitar are popular musical instruments. The popular "Hawaiian Wedding Song" is usually sung at most wedding ceremonies. Traditional Hawaiian wedding attire consists of the bride wearing a long, white formal version of the muumuu called a 'holoku'. Instead of a veil, a woven garland of island flowers, 'haku lei', is worn around the head. The groom on the other hand, usually wears long sleeve white shirt and white pants a long red, or colored sash, is worn wrapped about his waist. A lei of maile and ilima flowers adorn his neck. Of course, chose whatever wedding style fits both your tastes. In Hawaii couples have gotten married wearing their swimsuits. Hawaii reveals romance, idyllic beaches and gorgeous landscapes. If the honeymoon wasn't invented here, it should have been. Hawaii and romance are practically synonymous. Wedding parties may qualify for a group travel discount. Imagine offering a romantic wedding for your guest, while they vacation in Mexico. Visit www.beverlyclarktravel.com for group specials to Mexico. Activities and Things to See in Hawaii Surfing is the king of sports, and Hawaii is deservedly renowned for its great waves. Beginners can learn the basics at Waikiki, and then watch the professionals on Oahu's North Shore. Maui has become a windsurfing mecca, with the top international windsurfers heading for Hookipa Beach. Diving is good year-round and there are plenty of underwater caves, canyons, lava tubes, vertical walls and sunken ships to explore. Lanai, the sunken volcanic crater of Molokini, and Oahu and Kauai's northern coasts are all great diving areas. The Big Island's Kona Coast offers some of the world's best deep-sea fishing for Pacific blue marlin, yellow fin tuna and spearfish. And for those who want to keep their feet on solid ground, hiking opportunities include trails in the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Haleakala National Park and Hawaii's premier hike along Kauai's Na Pali Coast. The Hawaiian Islands Oahu Places worth visiting on Oahu: Waikiki Beach Pearl Harbor North shore Beaches Hanauma Bay Nuuanu Pali Lookout Oahu, nicknamed 'The Gathering Place', is the most populous, most developed and most well known of the Hawaiian Islands. Oahu throbs with energy and elegance. The names and images most commonly conjured up by the mention of Hawaii are all here: Honolulu, Waikiki, Pearl Harbor, Pipeline and Sunset Beach. The state capital, Honolulu, is the major exit/entry point for travelers. For a more back to nature approach, visit the lush windward side. Eons of wind and weather erosion have carved these ranges' sculptured, jagged peaks, deep valleys, sheer green cliffs, and dynamic vistas. At the base of these mountains more than 50 beach parks lie draped like a beautiful lei, each known for a different activity, be it snorkeling, surfing, swimming, or sunbathing. Waikiki continues to serve as home base for endless possibilities for day trips full of cultural and scenic eco-adventures. Visitors can stroll along a new and improved Kuhio Beach and find wider beach expanses and extensive services, and meander along the historic Waikiki walking trail. With Waikiki leading the way, Oahu maintains its status as an exciting destination, with more things to see, more places to eat, and more things to do than on all the other Hawaiian Islands combined. Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Honeymoon Getaway on Oahu, Hawaii, we recommend: Aston Waikiki Beach Hotel Aston Waikiki Beach Tower Big Island (Hawaii) The island of Hawaii, commonly called the Big Island, is nearly twice the size of all the other Hawaiian Islands combined. Geographically it's the most diverse island of the archipelago, with deserts, rainforests, the world's most active volcano, and surprisingly, snow-capped mountains. Mauna Kea, which measures 32,000 ft beneath the ocean's surface to its 13,796-ft peak, is the world's tallest mountain. The mountains create a huge barrier that blocks the north-easterly trade winds and makes the leeward, western side of the island the driest region in the archipelago. This coast, known as the Kona-Kohala Coast, has the best beaches and water conditions. The windward, eastern coast, with the island's major city, Hilo, is predominantly rugged, with pounding surf, plenty of rain, tropical rainforests, deep ravines and majestic waterfalls. So much rain falls near Hilo, the island's major city, that a botanical garden at Onomea Bay provides umbrellas to enter its tropical jungle. Kona, Waikoloa and Hilo are the main centers for accommodation and restaurants. Worth visiting on the Big Island: Hawaii Volcanoes National Park Waipio Valley Mauna Kea Mauna Loa Hapuna Beach Kona Hilo Puuhonua O Honaunau National Park Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Honeymoon Getaway on the Big Island, Hawaii, we recommend: Aston Waikoloa Colony Villas Fairmont Orchid Kauai If you're looking for lush scenery, Kauai, known as 'The Garden Island', is a great choice. Kauai's central volcanic peak, Mt Waialeale, is allegedly the wettest place on earth. Many movies were filmed on Kauai, such as South Pacific, Raiders of the Lost Ark and Jurassic Park. Most of the island's interior is mountainous forest reserve, which offers great hiking; the southern and western coasts are dry, sunny and fringed with beautiful beaches. Kauai's capital is Lihu'e, the island's commercial center. Its collection of businesses -- a pair of banks, a library, a school, a museum, some family-run restaurants, and hotels -- is small enough to keep the pace unhurried. North of Lihu'e the climate turns cooler and wetter, and everything sparkles green. In Wailua and Kapa'a, resort complexes huddle along a picturesque shoreline called the Royal Coconut Coast for its abundance of palms. As you head farther north to Anahola, Kilauea, Princeville, and Hanalei, vines and flowers flourish. On the south coast the sunny beaches and clear skies around Po'ipu have spawned a crop of condos and hotels. The area has also come into its own as a golf destination, and several fine restaurants have found a home here as well. Accommodation and eateries can be found in the small towns of Lihue, Kapaa, Princeville and Poipu. Worth visiting on Kauai: Na Pali Coast Waimea Canyon - the 'Grand Canyon of the Pacific' Lumahai Beach Polihale Beach Wailua River Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Honeymoon Getaway on Kauai, Hawaii, we recommend: Aston at Poipu Kai Aston Islander on the Beach Waimea Plantation Cottages Maui Maui is known as 'The Valley Island'. The island is comprised of two large extinct volcanoes (Haleakala and Puu Kukui) divided by a central valley. It's the second-largest of the Hawaiian Islands and the most developed of the Neighbor Islands. It's renowned for its abundant supply of beautiful, romantic beaches and some of the world's best windsurfing and surfing spots. The uplands of Maui are comprised of eucalyptus groves and cattle ranches. Check out the historical town of Makawao, with its fine restaurants and cowboy flavor buildings. The east coast of Maui is where you'll find the lush, tropical rainforests. Looking for nightlife on your honeymoon vacation? Then visit Lahaina and Kaanapali Beach. For a more relaxing atmosphere take a slow, dramatic rain-forest drive to the sleepy town of Hana. Worth visiting on Maui: Haleakala Crater Iao Needle Lahaina Kaanapali Beach Hana Highway Polipoli Spring State Recreation Area Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Honeymoon Getaway on Maui, Hawaii, we recommend: Adventure in Paradise Aston Kaanapali Shores Fairmont Kea Lani Maui Maui Kaanapali Villas The Whaler on Kaanapali Beach Lanai Lanai, known as the 'Pineapple Island', is a sleepy, pineapple-plantation island, which 98% of the island is owned by Dole Corporation. Lanai's old pineapple fields have been transformed into two exquisite resorts-one in the mountains and one by the sea. Lanai is home to many natural wonders. To the northwest lies the Garden of the Gods, where rocks and boulders are scattered across a crimson landscape. Adjacent is a trail leading through the Kanepu'u Preserve, a dryland forest with some 48 native species, including the endangered Hawaiian gardenia. On the southern tip is Hulopo'e Bay, a marine conservation area prized by divers and snorkelers for its vivid tropical reef fish and crystal clear waters. Experience hiking or driving to the summit of Lana'ihale, a 3,370-ft-high windswept perch in the eastern reaches, you'll find a splendid view of nearly every Hawaiian island. Worth visiting on Lanai: Hulopo'e Beach Garden of the Gods Lanai City Lanaihale Shipwreck Beach or Kai Olohia Looking For the Best Hawaii Honeymoon Location or Wedding Destination? To find your Romantic Getaway on the Lanai, Hawaii, click here. Molokai Molokai is often called "The Friendly Island", because of the aloha spirit that flourishes there. Molokai is one of the least visited of all the Hawaiian Islands...which makes it so special. Molokai is a quiet, slow-paced retreat that epitomizes the South Seas paradise that first sparked tourist interest. With a population of roughly 7,000 (compared to Oahu's nearly 1 million), it has the highest percentage of residents with Hawaiian blood - roughly 50%. The island opens its heart to you along its shimmering reef and spectacular sea cliffs.
