Sådan kommer du omkring
Cars dominate.
While you can get around via ride hailing apps, it can get really pricey.

🫳🚫Turtles and nature
While it's against the law to touch a turtle, it's taboo to take rocks and other objects of nature.
Book, inden du rejser
Any touristy spots.
The state has recently pushed for a reservation system for parks including beaches. Although primarily in Oahu for places like Hanauma Bay and Diamond Head, expect it coming here.

Patience
The islands run on Hawaii time, expect things to be slower: Starbucks, traffic.
