Welcome

Get the scoop on Hawai'i. We're here on Maui but almost every tip will apply to the other islands.

Your vacation on the best islands in the world (not that we're biased or anything) will be greatly enhanced if you're up on these tips. You'll interact like a local and this will open up many doors that are closed to the average visitor.

We created this web site because we wanted visitors to get correct information. There are some (very popular) unscrupulous guide books which will lead you astray.

Some books will tell you to go places that sound enticing but can become life-threatening. You'll see people doing things that look easy but aren't appropriate for beginners.

And there are many adventures you may miss because you aren't plugged into the local scene.

This web site will get you going on a fun and safe vacation.

Our Sponsors have kindly donated the space for this web site, so if you decide to go on an organized activity, please consider booking through them and let them know you heard about them through Hawai'i Visitor Tips. (We've allowed them to put one ad on each page.)
