The Hawiian Islands share a great deal, but what is most remarkable is how each Island has a character, flavor, and personality of its own. While the thread of history, culture, and hospitality irrevocably connect the Islands, the geography itself defines the unique feeling of each one. Before the picture-perfect backdrop of its own tropical seashore, green slopes, and waterfallrich valleys, each of the Hawaiian Islands offers nearly unlimited possibilities for action, adventure, romance, dining, shopping, cultural discovery and rejuvenation. Let the enchantment of hula, sweet air, serene beaches and friendly people capture your imagination and your heart as you enjoy the ‘Aloha’ spirit of the Hawaiian Islands (Hawaii Visitors & Convention Bureau, 2011).
