First you may no that there are six main islands in Hawaii, Those are Big Island ,Maui,Lanai,Molokai,Oahu,Kauai.


Places to visit in Big Island -

Mauna Kea,
Hawaii Volcanoes National Park,

Mauna Kea's lofty majesty stands as the tallest mountain in Hawai'i and is considered to be the highest mountain in the world when measured from the sea floor. Join a tour to travel to the top of Mauna Kea and reach up to touch the stars. Stare deep into the darkness of our unclaimed universe and sip on a delicious warming beverage as you take in the cold and crisp surroundings of this Hawaiian wonderland.


Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, With its dramatic landscapes and ever-changing lava show, it’s little wonder that Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is the number one visitor attraction in Hawaii. Kilauea Volcano has earned a reputation as the world’s most active volcano, with a continuous flow of molten rock oozing from its flanks to the sea since re-awakening in 1983. You can explore the steam vents, lava tubes, and old lava flows on foot, or take a helicopter tour to feel the lava heat up-close.

Places to visit in Maui -

Haleakala,
Molokini


Haleakala: Haleakala translates to "House of the Sun" by ancient Hawaiians. This active but non-erupting volcano stands in the middle of the Haleakala National Park which is home to indigenous creatures that can oly be found here in Hawaii. Learn about the ancient Hawaiian demigod Maui and his legend that tells of the story that he helped his grandmother to capture the sun to slow it down and to lengthen the day. Enjoy spectacular views from its summit as you drive up in a luxury van or cruise downhill on a mountain bike.


Molokini: Experience the beauty of this crescent shaped islet called Molokini, located just south of Ma'alaea Harbor. Once used for target practice by the U.S. military, it is now a popular visitors' attraction well-known for its great scuba and snorkeling. The State of Hawaii has implemented laws to preserve this area and to make a safe home for the exotic birds that live above and for the marine life in the sea below. Ancient Hawaiians would tell tales of the legend of Molokini being a woman that was in love with the same man as the Goddess of Fire, Madam Pele. Molokini was turned into stone and is now a part of this islet's romantic history.

Polynesian Cultural Center,

I think you should stay the whole summer time in Hawaii, so that you'll appreciate the beauty of the beaches of Hawaii.
