Hawaii is one of the most romantic destinations in the world. There’s A LOT to do and see when you’re in paradise with your significant other, so I created a list of the top things to do on your honeymoon in Hawaii.

The Top 101 Things To Do in Hawaii

I’ve grouped these activities by island so you can plan an epic Hawaii itinerary, whether you’re going to one island or all four.

Here are the best things to do on your honeymoon in Hawaii!

Know Before You Go

A car is essential on all four of the main Hawaiian Islands – Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and the Big Island. Renting cars saves you money because rideshares and hired drivers are expensive. Plus, a rental car gives you flexibility over your itinerary, room to store and transport your belongings, and privacy.

I drove all over the Hawaiian Islands, but I only had to fill up my tank once on each island because the islands are so small.
