Hawaiian Islands

With warm days and nights, waterfalls, canyons, pounding surf, sandy beaches, waving palm trees, lush vegetation, an active volcano or two, the world's largest mountain from base to top, coral reefs, and a canyon to rival the Grand Canyon, this is an island chain that is unrivaled for climate, beauty, and diversity of scenery.
