Hawaii 24/7 (Local news, travel)


REVIEWED BY: Ms. Cairo

MY RECOMMENDATION: YES

AMAZON SUBSCRIPTION LINK: Hawaii 24/7 , by

WEB ADDRESS: http://www.hawaii247.com/

BLOG DESCRIPTION: Hawaii 24/7 is a news website focusing on the Big Island of Hawaii with local coverage of events, news and sports. The site is updated throughout the day as the news happens.

MY REVIEW: When people think about Hawaii, they think about Honolulu, the beaches of Maui and so on. The "Big Island" also called Hawaii, is not visited by tourists as much. This is an excellent blog for those individuals who live on the Big Island, as well as those planning to visit, because you see it all - all the news, updated throughout the day.

There's crime news, political news, weather news, entertainment news....all the news that's fit to print.

Highly recommended.

Hawaii Vacation Blog


REVIEWED BY: Ms. Cairo

MY RECOMMENDATION: YES

AMAZON SUBSCRIPTION PAGE: Hawaii Vacation Blog

WEB ADDRESS: www.blogcatalog.com/blog/explore-hawaii

BLOG DESCRIPTION: An adventure blog to guide you to all the hotspots on the islands of Hawaii. Hop onboard and follow the tracks of the Trailblazer Travel Book authors.

OUR REVIEW: Ah, how I’d love to be in Hawaii right now. It’s not in the cards however, so the Hawaii Vacation Blog is a nice substitute. It’s written by people who actually live in and have traveled throughout all the Hawaiian islands. (Just as a point of interest, the Big Island of Hawaii is not actually the one people think about when they think of Hawaii, that’d be Oahu, on which is located Honolulu. Just in case you don't know that!)
