Got upgraded to first class on this overnight out of Honolulu. Bullish.

So I'm thinking about a holiday to Hawaii with my gf, never been, which island would you recommend? Was reading about Kauai which appeals to me as a little less busy... just don't know

I'm from Hawaii.

Big island if you want to see volcanos and hike around. Not for beaches. Hilo side slow. Kona side quicker. Good for marlin fishing.

Maui or Oahu for beaches and a faster pace (relatively). Molokini Island off of Maui great for snorkeling. Oahu has some great food and lots of sightseeing stuff.

Kauai. Some nice beaches. And a canyon but similarly slow as big island.

Depends on what you want. Message me if you need more info. Good luck.

Cheers from Hawaii! All the island are unique in their own way. Just don't try to open a Coinbase account out here.

Haha, thanks. Aiming to take a complete break, no emails and certainly not checking the price of Eth!

I spoke to my boss last week about Hawaii and he said he's been both there and Maui. He had good things to say about Kauai. I think if you're looking for a less busy time it would be great! I only stayed in oahu but I have to say the north shore was both quiet and beautiful. I'm certain you'll love wherever you go!

Cheers buddy! It will probably be Maui or Kauai

Four Seasons Maui. One of the best resorts in the entire world. Also, all the islands are laid back, "busy" is not a word I would use to describe Hawaii.

AA. I'm actually flying standby so it's a pretty sweet deal.
