The People

Hawai‘i’s beauty isn’t just in its beaches, mountains, or flora. What truly makes it special is the deep connection between its people and the land.

The Place

Responsible travel is at the heart of Hawai‘i, ensuring it remains a vibrant, thriving paradise for generations to come. In this section, you’ll find practical guidance on how to travel sustainably, support local communities, honor cultural traditions, and explore the islands with respect and care.

The Hawaiian Islands

There are six major islands to visit in Hawaiʻi: Kauaʻi, Oʻahu, Maui, Molokaʻi, Lānaʻi, and the Island of Hawaiʻi. Each has its own distinct personality, adventures, activities and sights. We invite you to explore the Islands of Aloha to find your own Hawaiʻi experiences.

Mālama Hawai‘i

Mālama Hawai‘i encourages responsible and sustainable travel across the Hawaiian Islands.
