Exploring Hawai‘i
The world’s most isolated archipelago, Hawai‘i
lies 2,500 miles (4,000 km) from the West Coast.
The five main islands – O‘ahu, Moloka‘i, Maui,
Hawai‘i, and Kaua‘i – stretch across over 500 miles
(805 km) of the Pacific Ocean. Most of Hawai’i’s
6 million annual visitors arrive by air in Honolulu,
the state capital, and travel from one island to
another is mainly by inter-island flights. A handful
of ferry services and some luxury cruises also
link the islands. The most reliable way to explore
individual islands is by car, as public transportation
is minimal, except on O‘ahu.
