A guide to trips to Hawaii

Are you looking for a memorable vacation? Not sure which island to choose that would meet your perfect mix of qualities? Here’s what you may want to consider if you plan on going to Hawaii, the only U.S. state made up entirely of islands.

The beauty of Hawaii

Overview
Hawaii lives at the edge of continental Asia and North America. Synonymous with paradise, the Hawaiian islands are stunning, with miles of beaches, tropical rain forests, waterfalls, rocky canyons, hanging gardens and volcanoes.
Tourist travel is popular throughout the year, thanks to a mild year-round weather.
From Oahu to Maui, from Kauai to Molokai and Waikiki, your trip to Hawaii can be unforgettable and one of your best vacations. Whether you're honeymooning or going for a hike, skydiving or kayaking, horseback riding or hang gliding, there are so many options for your Hawaiian vacation. Tips
It is recommended though that you visit one island per week.
Otherwise, you may have to spend a lot of your vacation time on airports and checking in and out of hotels.
Also, fly directly to the island of your choice as it saves you at least a 2-hour layover in Honolulu and other plane ride.
Smokers must be aware of Hawaii's strictest non-smoking policy.
