Oahu

Oahu, known as "The Gathering Place", is the third largest of the Hawaiian Islands and most populous of the islands in the State of Hawaiʻi. The state capital Honolulu is located on the southeast coast. Including small close-in offshore islands such as Ford Island and the islands in Kaneohe Bay and off the eastern coast, it has a total land area of 596.7 square miles, making it the 20th largest island in the United States. In the greatest dimension, this volcanic island is 44 miles long and 30 miles across. The length of the shoreline is 227 miles. The island is the result of two separate shield volcanoes: Waiʻanae and Koʻolau, with a broad "valley" or saddle between them. The highest point is Mt. Ka'ala in the Waiʻanae Range, rising to 4,003 feet above sea level.

The Travel Guy

Andrew Wharton is the best go to guy when it comes to travel My husband and I had never been out of Canada when we decided to take a trip to the DR. We would have been lost without the assistance and advice of Andrew from the time we boarded the plane until we returned. He just seems to have that special knack for knowing what and how to do things that first time travelers get lost in Thanks Andrew
