KD in CA Posted November 28, 2004 Posted November 28, 2004 At first we were gonna stay away from Oahu and do Kauai, Maui and the Big Island. We both really want to see Pearl Harbor though. Both our grandfathers fought in the Pacific so we really can't miss it. I'm thinking 3 nights on Oahu right now. Most time spent on the North shore as neither of us are into the crowds and we want to stay away from the cities as much as possible. Then I was thinking 3 nights on the Big Island. I really want to see an active volcano so that trumps Kauai for me. Then a whole week on Maui divided between adventure and relaxation. 134057[/snapback] I did the same 3 Islands on my honeymoon several years ago. 3 nights is too long on Oahu....we were more than ready to leave after 2. The Big Island is REALLY cool and underrated. The volcano was amazing, make sure you do the helicopter tour (call shotgun... ). The rest of that island is very interesting too, the climate is so radically different in the north v. west v. east. The resorts are great there too, so if you are going to spend some time lounging by the beach, etc., it's a nice option. Maui is beautiful, lots to explore. I would have liked to seen Kauai too....maybe next time! Have fun!
