Enjoy the sweet strains of the instrument that has come to symbolize Hawaii. At the Annual Ukulele Festival in Hawaii, guest artists and a ukulele orchestra of more than 800 schoolchildren entertain the thousands who attend each year in downtown Waikiki.

Kahilu Theatre began as the dream of a native Hawaiian, who wanted to create a theater that would inspire creativity and a passion for the arts among local residents and visitors. Built in 1979, the 490-seat theatre in the town of Waimea hosts stage performances throughout the year, as well as free community events, a youth concert series, meetings, lectures and other special events.  The gallery in the theater displays work of up-and-coming Hawaiian artists as well as established artists on the Big Island. The Youth Concert series is a special series of performances from the headlining shows, reworked especially for a younger audiences. Performances have included HANDS, a Chinese Percussion Team; Kealoha, the founder of HawaiiSlam; and PHILADANCO!, a Philadelphia Dance Company.

Let the folks at KapohoKine Adventure Tours take you on Volcano Lava tour. You'll start with a scenic drive up to two majestic volcanoes that make up the bulk of the Island of Hawaii, Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea. Then it's time for an up-close look at the flowing lava and smoking landscape.

A gorgeous sunset on the beach becomes even more magical when you are horseback riding with that special someone on a romantic date. Enjoy a sunset ride on the Ponoholo Ranch and you'll see the most amazing colors in the sky and on the sprawling beachfront.
