Sometimes, the best way to experience a place is to go backpacking. Kayaking, hiking and surfing are just three of the most enjoyable activities you can do while youre in the islands.

Theres also Manago Hostel in South Kona, the perfect headquarters for all your activities because it keeps you within striking distance of the best snorkeling and kayaking destinations in Hanaunau Bay.

All Inclusive Hawaii Vacations for Golfers

Whats not so good about playing golf in Hawaii is the distraction. Its a gargantuan effort to concentrate on backswings with the crystal blue waters of the Pacific to one side, a breathtaking volcano to the other, a palm-fringed fairway in front, the fair blue sky above, and a steady, soothing breeze wafting about. If this is a distraction you prefer, then pick up your clubs and hit the Aloha State with all inclusive Hawaii vacations. Popular golf spots in Hawaii Island are found along the Kohala Coast: Hualalai, the Mauna Lani Resort, and the Mauna Kea Resort. There are also the Waikoloa Beach Resort and Ocean courses, as well as the Alii Mountain Course at the Kona Country Club. Oahu also has the biggest share of golf courses in the islands, with 40 public and private courses scattered around. Check out the North Shore with the Kahuku Golf Course and the Arnold Palmer and George Fazio courses at the Turtle Bay Resort. If youre staying in Honolulu, you can play Ala Wai, Hawaii Kai, and Moanalua.

The cuisine of the islands is a rich and complex fusion of the food brought by multiethnic immigrants. A hearty mix of Filipino, American, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Polynesian and Portuguese influences, and reflects the color and life one can see throughout the islands this is what Hawaiian food is all about. If this sort of fusion is your right up your alley, maybe all inclusive Hawaii vacations are in order for you and your gourmet friends. Sample the variety of foods that can be had at almost every restaurant and diner. Dont miss out on the staple Hawaiian plate lunch: a combination of steamed white rice, a salad, kimchee, and several main dish choices that often include traditional Hawaiian dishes like lomi salmon and laulau, hamburger steaks, charsiu chicken, tonkatsu, adobo, and lumpi.
