Grab some fresh Ahi and/or squash and maui onion, a lemon or lilikoi from the vine for marinade with salt and pepper, and then throw it all on the grill! Dice up papaya or mango from the farmer's market and add ONE Hawaiian chili peppers for a quick tropical salsa - wow yum! Start your rice early and then lounge while you wait for your delicious dinner.

Overlooking kalalau valley, if you can’t go north shore and take a boat ride this is the alternative.

This is such a great hike from Shipwrecks beach all along the coast that ends at this beautiful cave the Hawaiians used centuries ago. Or drive right up to it if you aren't keen on a trek along the cliffs.

Don’t sight see while you’re driving

I know it sounds silly, but tourists cause accidents all the time because they’re not looking at the road.
Com moure's per aquí

You need a vehicle to see all of the island

Getting from one side of the island to the other will take longer than you think. Don’t tail people, relax and don’t speed... you’ll get there eventually.

The Ocean is dangerous

Be smart, look at the warnings posted and if you’re not familiar with currents and ocean safety do not go into the ocean without a floatation device. If you are not a strong swimmer only go to beaches with Life Guards.
