HBR 1

Lana’i has the rare distinction of having two separate Four Season’s Resorts, each with a world-class golf course. The trip via ferry from Lahaina Maui is a treat in and of itself. Upon arrival you are met by your shuttle at the docks and take the short ride to a golf round you will never forget. The picturesque challenge at Manele is a championship level course designed by Jack Nicklaus, featuring breathtaking ocean views, with several holes perched on cliffs above the sea.

Panoramic view of active Kilauea volcano crater

The Hilo Volcano is a spectacular volcano that is still active, while you might not see flowing red lava, you will see steam vents, and smoldering fire.

Kauai's Mountains

Kauai, the Waimea Canyon may be the most surprising. Perched above the town of Waimea on Kauai’s Westside, this “Grand Canyon of the Pacific” is truly spectacular.  The Canyon has formed due to over 5 million years of erosion and weathering. With plenty of pullouts and lookouts, you can make a supreme photo safari with a day spent exploring this park. The elevation gain is several thousand feet, so be prepared for a little cooler weather and perhaps even fog. 

Road to Hana

The historic Hana Highway is the most legendary road in Hawaii, not only as an engineering feat but also as one of the most beautifully scenic roads in the state. With 617 curves and 56 single lane bridges going just one-way to Hana, you will begin to realize that this road is a more about the journey then the destination. If you try to go to fast and see it all you will find the road can quickly wear you down and reduce your fun. Take your time and enjoy the ride and you will begin to get a deeper sense of peace as you explore this very special roadway.

Rainbow over Waikiki

Colorful bursts of light and sound punctuate the ocean air as you sit on the beach reflecting on a day spent at play in Hawaii. You are just steps away from more fun and food then is located on entire islands in other parts of the state, Waikiki is teeming with possibilities. A visit to this famous locale can be a combination of beaches and tourists attractions, with some shopping or even a romantic meal.

"Ready, set, paddle_"
Queens and Canoes is popularly known as the birthplace of surfing thanks in part to Duke Kahanamoku and the Hawaiian royalties before him who considered these beaches their playgrounds.  Because Waikiki has deep roots in surfing, it is difficult to imagine that these beaches were once mostly marshland made up of fishponds and loi (taro fields) It’s a far cry from the hotel-lined coast that it is today.  If privacy and peace on the beach is what you are looking for, take the wikiwiki shuttle back in time because you will not find it in Waikiki.  If what you look for in between basking under the Hawaiian sun is a 360-degree view of continuous people-watching entertainment, an array of activities, and access to great food and dining Canoes and Queens will not disappoint.
