Hawaii offers incredible views, culture, food, weather and nature. Hawaii is a great place to spend time actively but it is also a great place to relax on the beach. I fell in love with Hawaii and recommend it to everyone!

It was nice we went to Honolulu and the most interesting thing we did was go to the ocean. My sister and I stayed so far out that my mom actually worried about us. We also went snorkeling and saw dolphins.

Always felt safe on all islands. Eaxh island had such a different vibe! Especially loved how accessible Oahu was with public transport. Still recommend renting a car to find the most beautiful spots!

I stayed in a room for 50$ the first night and then I took a long bus to the volcano and did camping there for one night. It was really cool, chill and safe. After, I took a plane to Honolulu. Very touristic, I didn’t like it there that much but the water is amazing. I moved a little far away from the city to a...

Traveling to Hawai’i felt very safe. The locals would help you with directions and food recommendations! I would recommend going to the tide pools or Makapu’u beach. :) I stayed in a shared room in Kailua.

I felt safe and grateful for the kind people I met while traveling. There are lots of things to do and see, depending on how long you are there. Must-visit attractions include the Pearl Harbor National Memorial, Polynesian Cultural Center, Waikiki Beach, Diamond Head, and more.

It s an over rated place as per snorkel I didn’t find anything interesting It s super expensive and it s basically a mass of cement that has put the entire Waikiki inside lots of different big hotels like in a cage Food and items are cheap bad quality stuffs but with the triple of the price!

I went with family but felt overall safe. Everywhere was crowded. Everyone so nice. Had mexican restaurants and spanish speakers. The climate was so nice at night and day time. Beautiful views and had downtown places so pretty
