Golfing on ocean-view championship fairways. Pearl Harbor and drool-worthy shopping at Waikiki. Hawaii’s signature sights and activities are well-known and easy to experience, whether you choose to stay put on land or cruise between its islands. Some of the best things to do, however, are water-based. Let’s face it, you can’t visit the Hawaiian islands and not dip a toe in the turquoise waters, right? Hawaii, in fact, offers oodles of water activities, from snorkeling to sailing – even tubing down historic sugar cane irrigation canals. So haul out your swimsuit, ‘cause there’s an ocean of watery fun just waiting for you in the Aloha state. Here are our top picks.

Ribboned by cascading waterfalls, this 17-mile stretch of gob-smacking scenery is right out of Jurassic Park (filmed here, along with King Kong). Sailing trips on large catamarans are popular. Spinner dolphins like to race along at the bow, and a snorkeling stop is often included – keep an eye out for sea turtles.

  • Olmsted 200 Bicentennial Notes About Olmsted Falls and Olmsted Township – First Farmed in 1814 and Settled in 1815 Issue 95 April 1, 2021
    Olmsted 200 Bicentennial Notes about Olmsted Falls and Olmsted Township – First Farmed in 1814 and Settled in 1815 Issue 95 April 1, 2021 Contents Hamlin: He Loathed Slavery and Laid Out Olmsted Falls 1 Olmsted Falls Holds First Election 6 Poor People Found Refuge in Township Eight Decades Ago 7 Story Answers a Longtime Murder Mystery 9 Still to Come 11 Hamlin: He Loathed Slavery and Laid Out Olmsted Falls The Civil War began 160 years ago this month, but Olmsted residents had been engaged in the struggle against slavery long before Confederate forces fired on Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861. “Olmsted was decidedly anti-slavery and there were many very strong anti- slavery advocates voicing their hatred of slavery,” Walter Holzworth wrote in his 1966 book on Olmsted history. “It was a topic in Lyceums and Churches.” It also was the main topic of a weekly newspaper that started publishing from Olmsted Falls in 1846, 15 years before the Civil War began. The True Democrat was both anti-slavery and pro-Whig Party, as was its initial editor and co-founder, Edward Stowe Hamlin. He was better known for his long and varied career elsewhere in Ohio and nationally, but he was quite influential on the development of Olmsted Falls despite spending relatively little of his long life in the community. Although Hamlin was associated more with Elyria and Lorain County, records indicate he owned quite a bit of land in Olmsted Falls. An 1841 Cuyahoga County tax list shows he owned at least two pieces of Olmsted land, one covering 500 acres and one covering 125 acres.
