which places to do things????

[daybreakbds]

any help will be greatly needed and appreciated. we are going to hawaii in january on the 19. here are some of the things we would like to do while we are their: helicopter, parasailing, snorkel, kayak (for beginners), tubing, and saw this thing called zipline that looked cool. we will be at hilo, kona, honolulu, kauai (nawiliwili), and maui (lahaina). this is our first time to hawaii and would like to make the most of our time their. any advice on which activies would be better in a certain port would be great. thank you for your time. :)

We did the ziplining in Costa Rica and really liked it. We're thinking about doing it in Maui in November.

Helicopter - Kauai, Hawaii, Maui (in that order); parasailing - any island; snorkel - Kona, Maui; kayak - hmmmm ... probably Kona? maybe Maui too (Kauai Na Pali kayaking is a little rough); tubing - Kauai, Kona; zipline - probably Maui though I really don't think it makes much difference since the activity is the same wherever you are.

 

There are more detailed recommendations on snorkeling on this board if you read through some of the old threads here ...
