Hawaii is not a single island, but rather an archipelago of six enchanting islands. Each of the Hawaiian Islands offers distinct scenery, adventures, and lifestyles. It’s no wonder Hawaii is atop the tropical vacationer’s dream list. With so much to see and do, a brief visit leaves even the most ambitious of travelers with little more than a taste of this tropical paradise. If you’re ready for the full menu, read on to see what a travel nursing assignment in Hawaii has in store for you!
The northernmost of the Hawaiian Islands is Kauai. Kauai’s distinct beauty leaves no room to wonder why over sixty feature films were filmed here, such as Jurassic Park and Raiders of the Lost Ark. Kauai is home to numerous breathtaking outdoor marvels, such as Waimea Canyon, known as the “Grand Canyon of the Pacific” and the wet and dry caves of Haena. While on your travel nursing adventure head up to Kalihawai Point to watch surfers in action or hike the Napali Coast along the Kalalua Trail for some incredible island views. Gain a unique view of the land while skimming the treetops along a zip line. Only ten percent of the island of Kauai is accessible by car. The rest must be explored by foot, bike, helicopter, or boat. With so much to do, Kauai promises adventures beyond your wildest imagination!
Oahu is the second most northern island of the Hawaiian chain, and is home to eighty percent of Hawaii’s population. Oahu is a marvelous medley of lush mountainside and glamorous cityscape, all within minutes of one another. Oahu is home to some of Hawaii’s best nightlif. Head to the north shore to catch some sun and watch world-class surfers master the bluest waves you’ve even imagined. Be sure to visit the Makapuu Lighthouse on the south shore for even more incredible Hawaiian views. For a taste of city life, head to Waikiki Beach for a night of galleries, shopping, and dancing.
If you’re ready for some serious rest and relaxation during your travel nursing assignment, add Molokai Hawaii to your list. Frequently described as “untamed wilderness,” Molokai offers peaceful beaches, serene ocean views, and unsurpassable tranquility. For a taste of truly unspoiled wilderness, visit the 3000 acres of untouched rainforests at Kamakou Preserve, or hike to Mooula Falls in Halawa Valley. Take a swim in the refreshing waters of Kaupoa Beach, and don’t forget the picturesque views of sunset at Kapuaiwa Coconut Beach Park.
Travel nursing in Hawaii would not be complete without paying a visit to the island of Lanai, dubbed “Hawaii’s most enticing island.” A visit to Hulopoe Bay to see the lava rock tide pools and to cash in on some of Hawaii’s best snorkeling will satisfy even the most avid enthusiast of exploration. For a sight-seeing experience like none other on earth, take a four-wheel drive along the moon-like lunar landscapes at Keahikawelo.
For an unsurpassable snorkeling experience, head to Black Rock at Maui’s Molokini Island. Like the underwater life, but prefer to stay dry? Head to the Maui Ocean Center, where guests can come within feet of sharks and manta rays via an underwater acrylic tunnel. If you’re in the mood to see some vibrant tropical hues, visit Kula Botanical Garden to see colorful orchids and Birds of Paradise, or watch a vivid sunrise from atop Haleakala Crater. Head toward Hana for a day of hiking, and don’t forget to stop and admire the breathtaking beauty of Waimoku Falls. When you’re ready for a day of sun and sand, choose from any of Maui’s 81 gorgeous beaches.
Hawaii’s Big Island is the both the largest and southernmost of the islands. Home to eleven different climate zones, Hawaii’s Big Island offers everything from rainforests to deserts to snow-topped mountains and black sand beaches. Our traveling nurses love to visit Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and watch molten lava flow from Hawaii’s famous Kilaeua volcano. While you’re in the park, don’t forget to walk through the 400-foot Thurston lava tube. Spend a day sunbathing on the white sand beaches of Hapuna Beach State Park, or lace up your hiking boots and set out on one of countless hiking trails. If a leisurely day at the greens is at the top of your list, the Big Island is home to twenty breath-taking golf courses, and much more!
