Heading to Hawaii in June and apart from the beach and Pearl Harbour, is there anything else worthwhile seeing tourist wise?

    Avoid the Polynesian Cultural Center.

    Rip Off!

    Try Maui and avoid the 'Americanisation' of the state.

    Is Big Island the only place to see volcanic activity?

    What about Lost filming locations?

    You could try the Trip Advisor destination info and forums or googling Hawaii visitor information.

    I'm afraid so...there are many volcanos in Hawaii but thr Big Island one is active...as for Lost locations ??? There are loads. Most of the jungle scenes and golf course scenes were shot in Kailua Ranch.
  • We booked a tour with Ed Koch Tours, really nice guy with a hummer, he took us to all the popular Lost film sights, and now regularly emails us with the lastest updates. On Oahu we also went Whale Watching.
    Hope you enjoy your holiday, we also stayed on Kauii, so beautiful.
  • Sorry thats Ed Kos google hummer tours hawaii I highly recomend them
