My wife and I are heading to Hawaii on March 6 to celebrate our 45'th wedding anniversary. We will spend 8 or 9 days on O'ahu and the rest of the time on Maui. Besides Pearl Harbor, what should we be sure to visit? Our daughter has been there a couple times and has sent me pictures of antique Caterpillars, I think on Maui. Are there any agricultural museums to see? Thanks for any advice, this will be our first trip to Hawaii and our 50th state to visit.

We absolutely loved Maui--you can snorkel all around the island and the Molokina crater is awesome---go to the top of the Haleakala volcano, take an atv excursion on your way down. Take the road to Hana, but don't take it back,keep going and you go thru many farms,orchards, gulches, and Mountains on the back side

On Oahu, head to Ewa, not Ewa beach (pronounced Eva), out to the west end of the Island. The Hawaiian Railway Society has a great display of railroad equipment plus they give rides. I’m not sure if Dole still has a Museum on their pineapple operation. Of course thePunch bowl Cemetery. There is a nice hike up Diamond Head.

A number of years ago there was some great off shore fishing to be had out at the FADs (fish attracting devices). I seem to remember they might have lost some of them in a rare to them storm but not sure if they found them again.

The girl and I and two friends will also be visiting Hawaii . We will be there 3rd to 7th September 2018.
This is some great information to us . We will be on the island of Oahu and besides the Pearl harbour WW2 memorial sites we are ken to get away from the main tourist glitter strip . Please keep up the suggestions.

if you are into surfing on the north end of Ohau there is a world class surfing spot--sorry i forgot the name--biggest waves I have ever seen--many international competitions there---and don't miss one of the traditional Luau's that are on all the islandsto all th

Hawaiian airlines fly to most of the other Islands and is quite reasonable

when we went we took a 7 day cruise on NCL and visited all the islands--then stayed another 2 weeks on Maui it was so great!
