Hawaii, an island is all about beaches. More known for couples and honeymoon trips. No harm if others join. It is also known for its volcanoes. As a research about travel around the various islands of Hawaii, surprised to know there’s not much easy access ferries running between! Flights are the only mode of transport. So guess you should schedule for a connecting flight a day or two later and for the return flight from another island a couple of days later.

**More details: Haleakala National Park, Maui
The Haleakala National Park preserves the Haleakala volcanic area on the island of Maui. Explore the summit area and/or the Kipahulu area down on the coast, but be aware that these park areas are not connected by road and it will take two separate trips to visit both. Both Haleakala National Park areas are unique; the summit offers spectacular views and scenery, while the valley of Kipahulu is lush and lined with beautiful freshwater pools and waterfalls including the pools of Oheo. Must-do's are: hike the two-mile trail leading through the Oheo Gulch and swim in the lower pools, and visit the visitor center.
