Hawaii, the “Aloha State”, is a unique vacation destination. Its six main islands, namely the Big Island, Maui, Lanai, Molokai, Oahu, and Kauai, are all in one state each having distinct features. Tourists are not only attracted to the lovely beaches offering water-borne activities but also to the diverse wildlife and active volcanoes. Immersing themselves in Hawaiian culture also tops their travel plans. Aside from exploring sacred lands, tourists want to learn how to cook poke dishes paired with local beers.
Hawaii is among the first US states to promote gender equality. This makes this state a fun and safe place for same-sex couples to have their weddings, honeymoons, or romantic getaways. For suitable stays, check out the best gay-friendly resorts in Hawaii, USA.
