OAHU
The Gathering PlaceAppropriately named "The Gathering
Place", Oahu is the exciting center of the Aloha State. Famous Waikki Beach, the
heart of the island and a world class resort area, offers outstanding dining,
entertainment, shopping, attractions and hotel accommodations to fit any budget.
Down the shore from Waikki Beach is one of the most recognizable landmarks in
Hawaii, Diamond Head. This extinct volcano crater sits solemnly above another fabulous
beach filled with sun worshippers and surfers.
Beyond Waikki, Oahu becomes a quietly enchanting island. There are 23 state
parks on the ocean and throughout the interior. On the North Shore, the oceans fury
comes to life as massive waves pound the shore in an unforgettable rhythm. History buffs
can trace the million-year history of the islands on Oahu, or experience more recent
history at Pearl harbor.

MAUI
The Valley Island
The mythic aura of this
island begins high atop Mauna Haleakala, a towering, dormant volcano whose crater is big
enough to hold further into the waters off its shores, where endangered humpback whales
find a safe home.
Maui could be called the activity capital of the world, with more than one
hundred optional activities to be experienced by land, sea or air. Relax on the beautiful
sandy beaches or explore historic Lahaina, once Hawaiis Royal capital and later a
famous whaling town.
Taking the Road to Hana and the Seven Pools is an unforgettable trip. The road
itself is a twisting narrow ribbon that weaves in and out of sea cliffs, mountains,
valleys and waterfalls, and through rainforests and jungles of ferns. It is a visually
spectacular journey that should not be missed.
Maui is a true haven for golfers. Practice your swing on a great variety of
courses, each with unique characteristics and spectacular vistas.

The Garden Island
The "Garden Island" is considered by many to be the most beautiful of
the Hawaiian Islands, because of its lush, tropical rainforest, desolate moonscapes and
more than 40 spectacular beaches. Life on Kauai is unhurried from the Na Pali Coast to
Waimea Canyon with plenty of unforgettable beaches and stunning waterfall in-between.
Most people have already seen Kauai on the silver screen as the lush, Eden-like
backdrop for hundreds of films including Blue Hawaii, South Pacific, Jurassic Park,
Raiders of the Lost Ark, Outbreak and Gilligans Island. Yet the cameras lens could
never do the island justice.
Some of the best golf courses in the Hawaiian Islands are found on Kauai,
including the Poipu Bay Resort Golf Course, known form the PGA Grand Slam of Golf and the
Prince Courses at the Princeville Resort.

HAWAII
The Big Island
Larger than all the
other islands combined, "The Big Island" is a miniature continent with stunning
beaches, dramatic cliffs, volcanic parks, exotic rivers, vast plains and even
cactus-studded deserts. The island is dominated by the twin peaks of Mauna Kea and Mauna
Loa, both over 13,000 feet high and divided by ski slopes.
Actually, Mauna Kea is only the top of a submerged mountain. Yet at 32,000 feet
from sea floor to sky, it could be called the tallest mountain in the world, dwarfing
Mount Everest by several thousand feet.
"The Big Island" is the youngest in Hawaii, a mere baby at one
million years old and still growing with constant eruptions and lava flows. It is one of
the only places on Earth where you can still see an active volcano. Along the
islands eastern edge, the desolate moonscape of Volcanoes National Park is home to
Kilauea, a fiery volcano that has been periodically erupting over the last decade.
Visit the charming port town of Hilo, the flower capital of the world, lined
with black and white sand beaches. The Kona Coast, world famous for coffee plantations,
offers stunning views of the ocean from its powdery beaches and sharp cliffs.

Hawaiis Most Secluded Island

Feel the Spirit of Hawaii
There is not a single
traffic light; elevator or chain store to be found on this quaint and friendly island
where youd experience authentic Hawaiian culture and tradition. All along Molokai

Hawaiis largest white sand beach.
