The Hawaiian Islands, one of the most picturesque and exhilarating places in the world. Located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, Hawaii consists of 8 main islands – Oahu, Maui, Hawaii (the Big Island), Kauai, Niihau and Kahoʻolawe. All are inhabited except for Kaho’olawe which is only used for native Hawaiian cultural, spiritual and subsistence purposes.
Hawaii has something for everyone and our experienced team of Portland travel agents will help you find your ideal island. The island of Oahu is a good choice for people who wish to experience the feel of the islands but still enjoy the conveniences of the large city of Honolulu. Just minutes outside the famous tourist destination of Waikiki Beach, you will find rainforests, hiking trails and lovely beaches. The north shore of Oahu is a fun place to visit in winter when enormous waves turn the normally sleepy area into the surfing capital of the world.
For those who wish to experience Hawaii at a slower pace, a visit to one of the neighbor islands would be a good choice. Overall, they are less populated but still have everything one would want or need on vacation. Whether you want to stay in an area with a bit more action and ‘energy’ such as Lahaina or Kaanapali Beach on Maui, or possibly a sweet cottage on a quiet strip of a soft white sand beach, you will find these accommodations on any of the islands.
All the neighbor islands allow time to relax and enjoy the sun and scenery. There you will find breathtaking natural wonders such as Hawaii Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island, Haleakala on Maui and Waimea Canyon on Kauai. Throughout the islands including Oahu, you will find many scenic waterfalls and rainforests which evoke visions of what the islands might have looked like before major corporations moved into Hawaii. A must see for many is the Road to Hana on the north side of Maui, which takes you over windy roads over old bridges and past beautiful waterfalls along the way. No matter what vacation your seeking, let a Hawaii travel agent help relieve some stress and personalize your perfect trip.
