I’ve been to all of the major Hawaiian islands at least twice and Maui has the most balanced mix of active things to do along with places to chill.

How to Photograph a Magic Kingdom Flyover
Wondering how to photograph a Magic Kingdom flyover? Every few years (give or take) the U.S. Navy Blue Angels or the U.S. Airforce Thunderbirds will do flyover photo opportunities over the Magic Kingdom or Epcot in Walt Disney World. The Air Force Thunderbirds recently performed at Disney’s Magic Kingdom as a tribute to National Veterans and Military Families Month.

1-Day Lānaʻi Itinerary
Looking for things to do on Lanai? Lānaʻi is a small island off the west coast of Maui. I recently took a day trip there from the island of Oahu and wanted to share my tips for a one-day itinerary.

Currently, you’ll need to…
