The islands of HAWAII
, with their volcanoes , palm-fringed beaches , verdant valleys
, glorious rainbows and awesome cliffs , hold some of the most
spectacularly beautiful scenery on earth. However, despite their
isolation, two thousand miles out in the Pacific, they belong
very definitely to the United States. If you expect your South
Seas idyll to be completely unspoiled, forget it; the fantasy
of a dream holiday in Paradise remains firmly rooted
in the creature comforts of home. With seven million tourists
per year, including honeymooners from all over the world, frequent
fliers cashing in their mileage, and almost two million Japanese,
the islands can seem like a gigantic theme park.
Honolulu , by
far the largest city of the fiftieth state, and with its resort
annex of Waikiki also the main tourist center, is on Oahu .
The biggest island, Hawaii itself, is known as the Big Island
in a vain attempt to avoid confusion. Maui and Kauai also attract
mass tourism, while smaller Molokai remains far quieter. All
the islands share a similar topography and climate . Ocean winds
from the northeast shed their rain on the windward coast, keeping
it wet and green; the southwest, leeward (or "Kona")
coasts can be almost barren, and so make ideal locations for
big resorts. While temperatures remain consistent throughout
the year at between 70F and 85F, rainfall is heaviest from December
to March. That is nonetheless the most popular time to visit,
enabling mid- to upper-range hotels to add a premium of at least
$30 per night to their standard room rates. A visit to Hawaii
doesn't have to cost a fortune, however; there are plenty of
budget facilities if you know where to look. The one major expense
you really can't avoid, except possibly on Oahu, is car rental
- rates are very reasonable, but gas is pricey. |
