The Conscious Traveller Hawai'i
The definitive guide to being an ethically conscious tourist in Hawaii.
Discover the true heart of Hawaii in The Conscious Traveller Hawai'i – a guide that goes beyond the resorts of Waikiki and invites you to connect deeply with the islands’ culture, people, and natural beauty while embracing sustainability, respect, and the spirit of aloha.
From immersing yourself in the ancient Hawaiian values of mālama ‘āina (caring for the land) to exploring the islands’ breathtaking landscapes, this travel book provides a roadmap for visitors who want to leave a positive impact. Learn how to experience Hawai'i's diverse offerings – from hiking volcanic craters and snorkelling in crystal-clear waters to sampling local delicacies and supporting native Hawaiian artisans.
With insights into regenerative tourism, how to embody the spirit of aloha, and tips for island hopping like a pro, this book serves as your ultimate guide to respectful and enriching travel.
Whether you're wandering through lush valleys, hiking to hidden waterfalls, or exploring cultural landmarks, The Conscious Traveller Hawai'i helps you navigate the islands with intention and care. Embrace the essence of Hawai'i, honour its heritage, and take home not just memories, but a renewed sense of connection to the land and its people.
