We have done Hawaii twice. Once on Oahu and once on the Big Island. The highlights for us on Oahu was The Arizona and the Missouri. We spent most of a day there. And well worth every minute. We did not care much for Honolulu or Waikiki. Both are way too crowded for us. The north shore was spectacular! The Big Island is very unique. I love how completely different the Kona side is versus the Hilo side. Loved the whole island. The waterfalls are amazing. As are the different beaches around the island.

We will not go back. As Pat above said, the flights (especially from the east coast) are brutal. For us the Caribbean is much closer.

You will absolutely love Hawaii. We do/did. But too far for us now. Enjoy!!
