Hawaii's Big Island, with 11 different climate zones, offers virtually endless opportunities to explore its natural wonders. This lush, tropical island is the largest and most diverse in the Hawaiian archipelago with the world's tallest mountain (Mauna Kea at 13,796 when measured from the ocean floor), and Kilauea Volcano, the world's most active volcano-- home to Madame Pele, the fiery Hawaiian volcano goddess.
You'll find diverse rainforest ecosystems, tumbling waterfalls and a warm and compelling culture whose people embody an authentic and heartfelt Aloha Spirit.

We'll even go on a canoe ride to look for honu (Hawaiian Green Sea Turtle) and tropical fish of every color.
