We had a great time at the ranch. Our guide was amazing! Arrived just in time for our tour, be sure to go to the ticket counter before lining up for your timed tour. Our guide explained well the ins and outs of the ranch, not just the movies shot there but the history and work being done beyond the big screen. Highly recommended.

There are no Chinese explanations or signs. Black Sand Bay Beach, often called "Magic Sands," is the only natural fine white sand beach in the Kailua-Kona region, famous for its unique "disappearing sand" phenomenon. The sand here is incredibly soft and fine. However, during winter storms, large waves wash away the white sand from the shore, making the beach almost "disappear," revealing the black lava rocky beach underneath. Several months later, the sand is slowly washed back by the waves, restoring the white sand beach. Surfing and Playing: As a well-known surfing spot, the waves here are usually large, suitable for surfing and bodyboarding. For tourists with average swimming skills or those with children, it is recommended to swim during lifeguard hours and be aware of the waves and rip currents.

Japan killed 2,403 Americans during the Pearl Harbor attack and 35,000,000 Chinese during the world war 2. Seeing the USS Arizona Memorial and crying Chinese baby lost parents is hard. The site kept and explained the history well. I highly recommend everyone who like learning about history and love peace to visit. I feel this is the most important site to visit in Honolulu. 珍珠港

The sea around Maui was an unrealistically blue, with waves crashing against the rocks and splashing white foam. Wild pheasants swaggered across the road, and cars stopped to wait for them. The Hana Highway wound its way along the cliff edge, making my palms sweat, and I stopped seven or eight times to watch the waterfalls and rainbows. While snorkeling, I was startled to see a green sea turtle slowly sliding past me. At night, I could hear the waves from my cabin, and when I looked up, the sky was filled with stars, so dense it was almost frightening. Time moved at a leisurely pace; even the cats lay lazily by the roadside.
