Things to Do in Hawaii (Besides Hanging Out at The Beach)

Hawaii tours oahu

Each year, millions of tourists from all over the world enjoy visiting Hawaii. There is plenty to do on the island of Oahu, particularly near the city of Honolulu. Of course, there are many water activities available, such as swimming, surfing, kayaking, and snorkeling. For those who prefer to spend some time away from the beaches, there are many different tours available.

In addition to its natural beauty, Hawaii is also rich in culture and history. The pearl harbor attack, on December 7, 1941, bringing the United States into the second World War, took place on island of Oahu. The U.S.S. Arizona was sunk in the attack. Today, there is a 184 foot long memorial to the ship in its place. One of the rooms aboard is a shrine, containing a marble wall with the engraved names of those who lost their lives on the ship.

The Pearl Harbor tours are some of the most popular on any of the Hawaiian Islands. The U.S.S. Missouri Battleship, a ship which has never had a combat death on board, is also located there and is open for tours. There are different types of package Pearl Harbor tours available, as well as individual USS Arizona tours and Uss missouri tours.

Hawaii is made up of a group of islands, which are actually the exposed peaks of a large underwater mountain range called the Hawaiian Emperor seamount chain. It was formed by volcanic activity happening over a hot spot on the mantle of the earth. The consistent warm, mild weather in Hawaii is great for certain crops, such as pineapples. The pineapple has become a symbol of hospitality. Sailors used to bring them back home to New England, and leave them on the porch of their family homes to let people know that the sailors were home from their ports and were welcoming visitors.
