Hawaii in June - need must-see recommendations

[MauiRockHopper]

I've been on all the islands, lived on the 3 largest. I like Big Island the least because of the volcanic smog, coqui frogs, and traffic (in Kona). If you do go Big Island I'd stay in Volcano B&B.

Maui No Ka Oi!!! Great cycling here, the best walkable beaches which aren't full of people. I wouldn't feel safe riding a road bike on Oahu in most places. Oahu has good shopping and eating.

My sister went to Hanauma Bay in Nov. The reef has been so trampled on and polluted all you will see are parrotfish. Instead go to Kailua Beach to relax, then there is awesome snorkeling around Lanikai point, more pristine reef & fish, calm clear waters.

There will be waves on the south shore (waikiki) where they rent long boards and give lessons. drive up Tantalus Road and Maunawili even the H3 is exciting.
