The latter contains the ruins of an ancient Hawaiian village as well; at the end of its mile long trial, professional divers jump into a lake from tall cliffs. Oahu's unhurried scenic north shore still reminds on Hawaii of the past century, while the south coast is a bustling, flashy international entertainment capital.

It was the first Hawaiian island to be settled by Polynesians 2000 years ago, and today some of the most sacred ancient Hawaiian sites can still be seen here. Its area (more than twice the size of all the other islands combined) encompasses the most active volcano on earth, exuberant rain forests, a village swept away by lava flow, orchid farms, beautiful waterfalls, and black, white and green sand beaches. Shop for colorful topical produce and local artifacts on the weekly Hilo market, visit the nearby Rainbow Falls, or hop by the local macadamia plantation for a delicious sample!


9th day: Check-out the early afternoon, and a 20 minutes flight to Kahului, Maui island with Aloha Airlines. Upon arrival, rental car pick up, hotel check-in and free activity.
