5.0 out of 5 stars Hawaii's best beaches is very informative., July 14, 2000

By	"lsparker1" (Hawaii) - See all my reviews

I've read John Clark's other books, and this one tops them all. It combines the information from all of Hawaii's best beaches in a creative and informative way. I am new to the Hawaii islands, so I also enjoy reading part of the history of the beaches as well as the meaning of the Hawaiian beach names. This book is also complete with beautiful color photos. I would recommend this book to anyone visiting Hawaii. Beaches are Hawaii's greatest asset.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT REFERENCE BOOK! A++, January 15, 2005

By	G. Voevodsky "waves_dvds" (Portola Valley, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I used this book extensively, as I was shooting the best beaches we could find for our DVD "Hawaiian Dreams" here on Amazon. It saved us a lot of time with great descriptions and informative facts. I highly recommend it, and if you want to actually see, hear and feel what these beaches look like, check out our DVD as well as this book.
