Save Some Money

The first major do for your trip to Hawaii is to save some money before your trip. You don’t want to spend your time on the island wondering, missing out on unique activities because you are counting your pennies. If you want to join a nudist charter, you should hop on board without a second thought.

Visit The Magnificent Humpback Whales

You will have to visit Hawaii in the winter for you to see the humpback whales, but it is a sacrifice that you should be willing to make. These whales are genuinely a sight so see a bucket list item that you should have.

Book In Advance

By booking your accommodation well in advance, you will be able to make use of specials. However, it is critical to book well in advance if you are planning on going to Hawaii in peak season. You might quickly run into an accommodation problem.

Another tip when you consider staying for a while is to rent a condo rather than getting a place in a resort. In a condo, you can save some money by cooking for yourself.

Don'ts On Your Trip To Hawaii

Don’t Split Your Time On Different Islands.

There is numerous island in Hawaii. We understand that you would like to see them all, but don’t try to fit multiple islands into a one-week schedule. You are going to spend all your time traveling between islands rather than enjoying the time.

Hidden Frees Can Be Your Down Fall

It is not always a “what you see is what you get” situation; if you book a hotel, there might be hidden fees that you should take into consideration. A few of the hidden costs that you can be on the lookout for include tax, resort fee, cleaning fee if you live in a condo, and of course, parking fees.

Visit During Holidays

We suggest that you try to visit Hawaii in the offseason because there are relatively fewer people around, allowing you to avoid the crowds. We recommend that you book your accommodation well in advance for those who do not want to avoid the crowds that New Year or Christmas brings about.

With so many fun things to explore in Hawaii, planning is key to making sure that your vacation is a dream vacation!
