Hawaii Cruise Destination Guide

The Hawaii Islands is one of the most sought after tourist destinations in the world. Being one of the 50 States of the USA, it is a mix of tradition and modern living, of large beach resorts and tropical adventure. Waikiki is the most well known of the tourist resorts, but the absolutely stunning landscapes around the Hawaiian Islands should be more than enough to tempt many of Save'n'Sail's clients to these shores.

The Islands: Oahu, in particular the tourist icon of Waikiki Beach, is visited by more than 4 million tourists each year, mostly Americans and Japanese. Waikiki beach, the shopping malls of Honolulu, Pearl Harbor, magnificent golf courses and the surf on the North Shore are its main attractions.

Probably the best way to see the Hawaiian Islands is on a cruise holiday. NCL Cruises have US registered ships which are based in Hawaii but if you are looking for a superb cruise and stay holiday why not ask us about our Princess Cruises Hawaii cruise and stay holidays. For example, fly to Las Vegas before sailing the Hawaiian Islands then spend a few day relaxing on one of the islands many golden beaches.

The Big Island is by far the largest island in the far south of the group, but only 140,000 people live there. However, amazingly over a million tourists visit each year, drawn by the stunning tropical scenery, laid back lifestyle, snow capped mountains and lava flowing volcanoes. Scuba diving and game fishing are at its best here.

Maui, by contrast, is the glamour beach destination of the islands with lots of large international hotels and condominium complexes alongside sweeping swimming beaches and manicured golf courses. The rural charm of the upper valleys and the historical port of Lahaina give the island a classical feel. Maui is also renowned for its excellent whale watching.

Kauai, the garden island, is much quieter than Maui with equally good beaches and the most breathtaking mountain and coastal scenery with great hiking and kayaking opportunities. Those who love the outdoors will find Kauai to be the most compelling destination.

Only on Molokai and Lanai will you truly escape commercialism - tourist infrastructure is limited, the scenery and beaches are not picture postcard, but a certain charm prevails where elsewhere in Hawaii it has been lost.
