Why Hawai’i is the Best Family Holiday
Family and Hawai’i go hand in hand. We love Hawai’i for families because there’s something for everyone – from ziplining over jungles to building sandcastles on Waikiki Beach, there are beautiful memories to be made here. And imagine tacking on Anaheim with Disneyland Resort tickets, just to make your Hawai’i holiday the most memorable holiday ever?! The kids will be thanking you for the rest of their lives! As a My Hawaii Expert, I’ve been travelling to Hawai’i since I was five years old, and I can attest to the lifelong memories that I carry with me today. So, I may be a little biased, but here are four reasons why Hawai’i is the best family holiday ever!
Hawai’ian Beaches for Family Time

There’s nothing like a full day on Waikiki Beach with the family. Parents can sit back and relax if the kids are a little older. It’s no stretch to say that Hawai’i hosts some of the best beaches in the world. After you’ve spent a few days soaking up the sun and lapping in the gentle waves of Waikiki, drive up north in O’ahu to Lanikai Beach to see the giant turtles sunbathing on the shore on this intimate beach. Or why not drive a little further and take a surfing lesson together as a family? South of the island, Hanauma Bay is a must-visit so the kids can see a kaleidoscope of coral and fish. You’d certainly be forgiven for spending all your holiday days on the beaches in Hawai’i.

The beaches are very special in Hawai’i, there’s no doubt about it, but if you want to take your family memories to the next level, there are endless experiences to be had in Hawai’i. From snorkelling with vibrant marine life to hiking through lush rainforests, Hawai’i is an adventurer’s paradise. Your family will bond over thrilling experiences like ziplining over the spectacular Kualoa Jurassic Valley, waterfall chasing in Akaka Falls State Park with an easy walk for the kids, and snorkelling with Manta Rays on the Island of Hawai’i when you stay at Waikoloa Beach Marriott. Then, of course, you and the kids can go lava chasing at Volcanoes National Park over on O’ahu. Nighttime paddleboarding under the fireworks is a spectacular way to see the sky in Waikiki light up, and the kids will love the experience. So, whether you’re an adventurous family or not, get out and explore the natural beauty that Hawai’i has to offer.
Cultural Activities for Families in Hawai’i

The Polynesian Cultural Centre is an unforgettable experience where kids can learn lei making and hula and play traditional games. There are interactive villages for all of Polynesia – Hawai’i, Tonga, Samoa, Aotearoa, Fiji, and Tahiti. At Pa’ina Waikiki, Waikiki Beach Marriot, Honolulu, you and the kids will love the Luau-style dinner Party Under the Stars with traditional luau entertainment and a drool-worthy Hawai’ian buffet. This is truly a memorable experience for the entire family.
