Top 5 Reasons to Vacation in Hawaii

    1. Weather
    The weather in Hawaii is perfect. The year-round average temperature is between 75 and 90 degrees Farenheit with an average ocean temp of 74 degrees in winter and 80 degrees in summer. Thanks to the constant trade winds, the highest temperature ever recorded here was 100 degrees F in 1931. So, while it gets tropical warm - it is never too hot.

    Sure, it rains here - it rains a lot in Hilo, and in other places - but that doesn't bother most because all you have to do is drive around to the sunny side of any island for almost guaranteed sun. There are places in the islands (usually on the west or south sides) with an average rainfall of 7 inches a year, and 350 days of sun.

    2. Choices
    There are 6 major islands to visit in the Hawaiian Island chain, and multiple climates on each island. You could snow-ski on Mauna Kea and parasail on Maui in the same day. You could spend a week in a cottage on a deserted beach and then spend another week at a bed and breakfast on a live volcano.

    3. Scenery
    Hawaii is a island of contrasts. The deep green grass against the deep blue ocean. The backdrop of sculpted mountains against the tropical blue sky. The stark, black lava slicing through the tropical rainforest. The pearl white beach sand covered by the light-green waters. The red, hot lava pouring into the boiling sea. Beauty, wherever you look.

    4. Adventures
    Every had a Hawaiian Spinner Dolphin race your boat? How about fought a 1200 pound Marlin to a draw? Have you seen a baby humpback whale learn how to lift its entire body out of the water? Do you have red hot lava flowing through your backyard? What color are sunsets where you live? Here they are "purple-red-orange-pink" ... oh yea, and green.

    5. People
    Wondering what the Aloha State means? It means the people here let you in traffic ahead of them; they smile and say hello as they pass on the street. This aloha has been adopted by all those who live here, but it must be credited to the Hawaiians; those of the rich culture, and exotic look, plus a unique, historical unity with the land.
