#6 - Tip From Tom Barefoot:
Bring a camera to Hawaii.
You might also want to bring or buy a water-resistant disposable camera that can be used on your snorkel trips for underwater pictures or on any tour or activity where your camera might get wet. Disposable cameras take surprisingly good photos.
#7 - Tip From Tom Barefoot:
In Hawaii, the Sun's strength is very noticeable.
It's tropical, it's hot, and the Sun's UV rays can be very damaging. While you are in Hawaii, make sure you apply plenty of sunscreen particularly between 10 am and 3 pm.
#8 - Tip From Tom Barefoot:
In Hawaii, children are welcomed on most activities, with some exceptions.
Most horseback riding companies will not take children, although a couple of them will. Scuba diving requires a minimum age of 12 years. Infants under two years are allowed on helicopters free of charge, if they're over 2 they're charged full fare. Height is a deciding factor in some activities. A child usually has to be at least 4 feet 10 inches tall for the downhill bike rides and a least 3 feet tall to ride on the submarine.
#9 - Tip From Tom Barefoot:
In Hawaii, expect to be inundated with every imaginable form of advertising the moment you set foot in the airport and for the rest of your time on island.
Many of the coupons and discounts you will find in the publications are misleading at best. Many are designed to be a "bait and switch" or a "come on" to a "time share presentation" at worst. Just be forewarned that things get very confusing once you arrive on island and in most cases its better to arrange and plan your vacation before you arrive and avoid the waste of your valuable vacation time.
#10 - Tip From Tom Barefoot:
In Hawaii, please be careful with the waves and surf.
The waves and surf are very beautiful and very fun, but they can also cause serious injury for those who are not cautious. Always make sure you know that the place you choose to enter the water is safe. Ask about the ocean conditions if you're not sure. Never turn your back to the waves and don't get too close to the shoreline if you're just admiring nature's beauty.
