Post tips for best places for summer vocations trip ?
Hello
Take a tour to Hawaii with its many beaches to play in the sand and ride waves to the point of exhaustion. Explore fiery lava flows, vibrant green fern forests and hidden waterfalls. The joy of snorkeling, the awe of watching a whale breach and the contagious smile that comes from a first surf lesson – those are the types of memories that will stay with you forever.

There are primarily six major islands to visit in Hawaii: Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, Lanai, Maui, and Hawaii’s Big Island – each with distinct personality, adventure and sightseeing opportunities.

The Hawaiian Islands has a diversity of plant, marine and animal life. More than 90 percent of Hawaii’s native plants and animals are found nowhere else in the world. It is one of the youngest geological formations in the world and the youngest state of the union. It has two seasons: “summer” and “winter”. The climate is subtropical, with a temperature of 77°F; Mark Twain said these islands “the peacefullest, restfullest, balmiest, dreamiest haven of refuge for a worn and weary spirit the surface of the earth can offer.” But perhaps its most prominent characteristic is its Aloha Spirit: the endearing warmth of its people, which wonderfully complements its perfect temperatures.

Have a memorable travel in Kauai’s incredible Waimea Canyon, 10 miles long and 1 mile wide. Visit Volcanoes National Park, it is a good place to learn about Volcanoes and other knowledge. Oahu is believed to be the product of a single “hot spot” in the earth’s mantle. The bulk of Oahu was created nearly 4 million years ago, by 2 now-extinct shield volcanoes-the remains of which are today visible as the Ko’olau and Wai’anae mountain ranges. More recent volcanic activity also created several of Oahu’s most visible landmarks: 761-foot-tall Diamond Head, located on Waikiki’s eastern border, is a “tuff cone,” formed some 100,000 years ago when an eruption of volcanic ash eventually hardened into solid rock.

You also may find the tallest sea cliffs in the world on Molokai’s north side, so great is his renown, Maui is the only deity in Polynesia to currently have a major island named after him. It was formed by 2 giant shield volcanoes. When seen from above, it looks like the head and torso of a man. The craggy landscape that replaced this once-massive volcano also helped give rise to Maui’s nickname: “The Valley Isle.” Over the millennia Maui’s geography has changed even more drastically. 12 distinct climate zones exist here, ranging from East Hawaii’s tropical rain forests and Mauna Kea’s frozen tundra to Ka’u’s arid desert in the south.
