TRAVEL GUIDE: HAWAII

The eight main islands that make up the tropical state of Hawaii have the latitudinal good fortune to enjoy near-constant sunshine, making it possible to surf, hike and off-road all year. Visitors can also indulge in sensual treats from Hawaiian lomilomi massages to fusion food like lemongrass sorbet and wasabi aioli. Coastline golf courses are in abundance, along with the specialty Kona coffee grown only in Hawaii. Learn the many meanings of “Aloha” in this happy archipelago.
