Hawaii: Adventures in Nature [Paperback]

George Fuller (Author)

Available from these sellers.

Book Description

Publication Date: October 1999

This is an all-in-one handy book for travelers who want more than just a suntan and souvenirs from their vacation. It provides full backgrounds of the Hawaiian islands' histories (both natural and cultural), describes the local flora and fauna, and details a range of activities including diving, snorkeling, sportfishing, kayaking, sailing, whale watching, surfing, camping, caving, exploring, and bicycling. Readers can tailor their tours to include options not found in other guidebooks, from locally owned lodges to homestays to resorts with ecotourism programs. Of course, there's lots of basic travel information too, about hotels, restaurants, and all the other little (but important) facts needed for a trip to Hawaii. Options for every budget are included.
