If there's a place in this beautiful country you need to visit before the 'ole ticker's time is up Hawaii is that place. Whether you're bringing the family, celebrating a romantic anniversary or on a honeymoon Hawaii is sure to fulfill the greatest of adventure appetites and peaceful desires. With literally hundreds of things to see and do on the islands you will never be bored and will always hunger for more.

This is the ultimate tropical getaway without the hassle of passports, without the need for currency exchange, and without the worry of crime or violence. Instead what you will find is an exotic paradise full of hospitality and a certain charm that just makes you feel at home. There are many islands to explore but the heart of Hawaii is made up of the primary islands of Hawaii (the Big Island), Oahu, Maui, and Kauai.

Known as the Garden Isle, Kauai is my favorite island. Highlighted by its tropical atmosphere, beautiful flowers and mesmerizing beaches, Kauai is the perfect destination for a honeymoon or romantic getaway. It is however also a great place for a family vacation. Kauai is generally less crowded making it a bit more enjoyable and comfortable.

Even though it has the highest population of people Oahu is still an island of beauty. Home to the famous Waikiki beach and it's ever present night life Oahu offers something for everyone. Looking for family attractions? Just visit the Oahu aquarium and zoo!

The Big Island of Hawaii is host to 11 different climate zones making it an interesting and diverse place to visit. It is also home to some of Hawaii's most famous volcanoes including Kilauea, the world's most active volcano. It's also home to several of Hawaii's most beautiful valleys which are excellent for hikers.

Maui, considered one of the world's best islands, is home to many beautiful beaches and luxury resorts. Maui has a combination of scenic drives and adventures to excite the most adventurous of visitors. Home to many historic towns and sights the island is rich in Hawaiian culture.

The weather in Hawaii is tropical, but less extreme than other tropical islands. There are really only two seasons in Hawaii, wet (winter) and dry (summer). The temperatures run in the upper 80's during the day and mid 70's at night during the summer, low to mid 80's and seldom dipping below the mid 60's at night during the winter. It's hard not to relax when the weather is always great.

You must make Hawaii a vacation destination and see it for yourself, no magazine or TV show can do it justice. Perfect for relaxation, adrenaline pumping excitement, and romance, you will find it all. So just go on and do it, you won't regret it!
