Big Island Romance 2008 - (Page 3) Love at first sight. It’ll capture your heart as it steals your breath away. Rugged lava coastlines are caressed by an ocean of blue. Snow-capped mountains reach for a clear blue sky. Lush rainforests are as soft as a lover’s kiss. On this island where the earth is young, romance is as inevitable as the rising and setting of the sun, and each blessed day and night are yours to hold in your heart forever. Untamed beauty. The largest of all Hawaiian Islands, the Island of Hawai‘i is still growing in size. It’s here that Pele, the Hawaiian Goddess of Fire, pours molten lava onto the landscape. It’s also home to Mauna Kea, the world’s tallest mountain as measured from the ocean floor. On the Island of Hawai‘i, you can scuba dive with manta rays, take romantic strolls along a white or black sand beach, or explore the snow-capped Mauna Kea summit where stars sparkle like glitter in a cloudless night sky. Civilized pleasures. Amidst nature’s sprawling canvas you’ll also discover jewels made by man. Exquisite resorts dot the western coast of the island. Champagne is shared on your private lanai. Warm lava-stone massages are made for two. Championship golf courses vie for your attention. And Hawai‘i Regional Cuisine brings fresh, flavorful Big Island ingredients to your table. Hawaiian at heart. To visit the Big Island is to find yourself in the heart of the Hawaiian culture. It’s a culture of appreciation, based on a timeless connection between the earth and the essentials it provides. Pause to admire taro fields along an ancient trail. Weave a basket of hala leaves. Or learn to flutter your fingers like the life-giving rain in the language of hula. These shared discoveries are just a few that await you on Hawai‘i’s Big Island. 7 7 Romance An island made for 3
