Hawaiian Superstitions
Hawaiian Superstitions

Many visitors are understandably tempted to take some beautiful lava rocks home from their Hawaiian vacation souvenirs. Be cautious: this practice can anger ‘Pele,’ the Hawaiian volcano goddess.
White Sands of Maui
With white sand beaches and crystal clear waters, Maui is ideal for sunbathing, snorkeling and snoozing! And a little boozing at times. But once you’ve gotten enough sun, Maui’s also a great place for shopping and sightseeing. The old whaling town of Lahaina is home to many quaint shops and eclectic art galleries. On the opposite side of the island, the long road to Hana will lead you to the waterfall fed pools at Oheo Gulch, a perfect place to stretch your legs and take in the view. After touring the island, you may need to unwind in Wailea with a pampering spa treatment. Where else can you drive up through the clouds and wind up on top of a volcano visiting one of the world most prestigious observation telescopes. It’s no wonder visitors return here year after year. We have seen the same families almost every year come and visit the white sandy beaches, stay at the same hotels and eat at the same restaurants. There is a reason for this, its sort of a calling. Once you have experienced the allure of Maui, you will come back year after year.
