Entertainment in Hawaii






Hawaiian Falls Waterparks is a waterpark chain in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex area, with four North Texas parks and one in Waco, Texas. Hawaiian Falls Adventure Park, now known as Hawaiian Falls Firewheel was the first park, opening in Garland, Texas in 2003. Hawaiian Falls Waterparks are focused on surrounding communities and their families.
The Hawaiian Falls Waterpark chain is owned by Harvest Family Entertainment, a faith-based company headquartered in The Colony, Texas.
n 2004, Hawaiian Falls expanded by adding Hawaiian Falls The Colony in The Colony, Texas and expanding Hawaiian Falls Garland. In September 2004, Horizon Family, Inc. joined up with Herschend Family Entertainment Corporation in a limited partnership.
In 2005, Hawaiian Falls continued to expand by opening Bahama Beach Waterpark in Dallas, Texas.
After a year of management under Herschend Family Entertainment, David Busch bought back the Hawaiian Falls chain to form Hawaiian Falls Waterparks[citation needed] under the management of Harvest Family Inc in 2006, which included the three waterparks in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex.
In 2007, Hawaiian Falls Waterparks renamed Bahama Beach to Hawaiian Falls Dallas and also acquired its first non-waterpark property, Aloha Adventure Park located in Lewisville, Texas. David Busch also invested in two Pizza Hut Express franchises to operate at two of its waterparks: Garland and The Colony.
In 2008, Hawaiian Falls expanded once again by adding Hawaiian Falls Mansfield in Mansfield, Texas.
In 2010, Hawaiian Falls added the Torpedo, a new thrill ride that is the first of its kind in the world. The Torpedo was launched at each of its three Dallas/ Fort Worth area waterparks, and features two speed slides coming off a 4-story tower. Riders step into a capsule at the top of the ride as anticipation builds with a countdown and special effects. When activated, a hatch opens under their feet, turning them into human torpedoes as they free fall at speeds up to 40 mph down the slide.
In late 2010, the city of Roanoke, Texas, entered into a Letter of Intent with Harvest Family Entertainment to build another Hawaiian Falls waterpark in Roanoke.[1]They later broke ground on November 22,2010. Hawaiian Falls Roanoke opened Memorial Day weekend 2011 with the Mega WaterWorld attraction, the World's largest water playground.
In October 2011, Hawaiian Falls entered into an agreement with the City of Waco to take over the former Waco City Water Park and transform it into the new Hawaiian Falls Waco, which is scheduled to open Memorial Day weekend 2012.
In December 2011, Hawaiian Falls announced plans for a $2 million expansion for the Roanoke waterpark and another $4.3 million in expansions for the other three North Texas parks to be completed by Memorial Day 2012!
Roanoke will add the Cyclone Fury, a six-story tower with four slides, including a two-person tube slide that curls around like a coiled snake before launching riders into a splash pool; two 60-foot tall speed slides and a family raft ride that will hold up to three guests per tube.
Mansfield will spend $3 million to add two major water slides, including a three-person tube slide with a 40-foot drop and a two-person tube slide which will send riders down a huge drop, then catapult them up three-stories, then backwards for a spectacular finish. There will also be a new 10,000 square foot Splashwater Harbor water playground.
The Colony will spend $1 million to adda new body slide with a twist. Two riders enter separate launchers at the top of a 60-foot tower. The floor drops and both riders are launched simultaneously, traveling opposite arcs around a large bowl at up to 40 mph. After several revolutions, they come to a gradual stop and climb out on a staircase in the middle of the bowl.
The Garland park is adding a two-person dark ride that uses state-of-the-art special effects to create a thrilling, multi-sensory experience with lights, sound and projections on a water wall to simulate sliding into a shark’s mouth, spinning blades, etc. The attraction will have the ability to change effects so the ride can offer multiple experiences. Garland’s Splashwater Harbor area is being updated and transformed into Keiki Kingdom, a special world of climbing, jumping, sliding and spraying with a floating obstacle course.

  • Ala Moana Center, most commonly known as Ala Moana, is the largest shopping mall in Hawaii. It is also thefifteenth largest shopping mall in the United States, and the largest open-air shopping center in the world.[1]
    Located at 1450 Ala Moana Boulevard in Honolulu, Ala Moana Center is part of the commercial, retail, and residential district of Ala Moana, south of Makiki, east of Kakaʻako, west of Waikīkī and across from Ala Moana Beach Park.

    While Hawaii doesn’t have a big-time professional sports franchise, Island sports fans still have plenty to cheer about. The local calendar is filled with major sports events, from PGA TOUR tournaments to the Honolulu Marathonand NFL Pro Bowl.

    Football fans get their fill of gridiron action each year. The Hawaii Bowl is a postseason contest in December that pits two NCAA Division I schools in a thrilling college football match-up. January’s Hula Bowl on Maui, meanwhile, allows some of the college game’s premier seniors to showcase their skills in front of watchful pro scouts. And the NFL Pro Bowl, held the week after the Super Bowl, brings the top players from the National Football League to Honolulu for hard-hitting all-star action. For Arena Football League fans, the Hawaii Islanders play at the Neal Blaisdell Center each summer.

    Golf

    Golf aficionados in Hawaii “score” with a number of major competitions on Oahu, Maui and Kauai. The Wendy’s Champions Skins Game, hosted by the Wailea Resort on Maui, features four of the sport’s greatest legends in two days of “skins” competition. (Past participants have included Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Lee Trevino, Tom Watson, Gary Player and Raymond Floyd.) The Mercedes Championships at Kapalua, Maui kicks off the PGA TOUR in January, and the Sony Open on Oahu follows up with another week of birdies, eagles and aces.

    College Basketball

    The holiday season brings a pair of action-packed college basketball tournaments: the EA Sports Maui Invitationaland Outrigger Hotels Rainbow Classic. Hoops legends such as “Pistol” Pete Maravich, Elvin Hayes, Michael Jordan and Isiah Thomas as well as current NBA stars Chris Webber, Mike Bibby, Marcus Camby, Paul Pierce and Nick Collison have all showcased their skills in the Islands.

    Hawaii also hosts two of the top endurance events in the nation: the World Ironman Triathlon Championship on the Big Island and the Honolulu Marathon on Oahu.

    UH College Sports

    Hawaii’s “home team” is the University of Hawaii. The school’s football, basketball, volleyball, baseball, softball and soccer teams all receive tremendous support from the local fans. The teams even sport different nicknames (“Warriors” for football, “Rainbow Warriors” for men’s basketball, “Rainbow Wahine” for women’s volleyball, etc.).

    Famous Athletes

    Hawaii’s sports notables include amateur golfer Michelle Wie; boxing champion Brian Viloria; NFL standouts Jason Elam, Pisa Tinoisamoa, Ashley Lelie and Jeff Ulbrich; Major League pitchers Jerome Williams, Justin Wayne and Tyler Yates; and NBA veteran Anthony Carter.
    surfing is a surface water sport in which the wave rider, referred to as a "surfer", rides on the forward face of a wave, which is most often carrying the surfer towards shore. Waves suitable for surfing are primarily found in the ocean, but can also be found in lakes or in rivers in the form of a standing wave or tidal bore. However, modern-day surfing can also be done in man-made sources such as wave pools and boat wakes.
    The term "surfing" refers to the act of riding a wave and not the form (with or without a board) in which the wave is ridden. For instance, the native peoples of the Pacific surfed waves on alaia, paipo, and other such crafts on their belly, knees, and feet. Not to mention, Bodysurfing, the act of surfing a wave without a board, is considered by some to be the purest form of surfing. That much said, the more modern day definition of surfing tends to refer to when a surfer rides a wave standing up on a surfboard, which is referred to as stand-up surfing or paddleboarding. Although, another prominent form of surfing in the ocean today includes bodyboarding, which refers to when a surfer rides a wave either on the belly, dropknee, or stand-up on a bodyboard. Not to mention, knee boarding, surfmatting (riding inflatable mats), foils, bodysurfing, and so forth.
    Three major subdivisions within sitting-up surfing are longboardingshortboarding, and stand up paddle surfing(SUP), reflecting differences in board design, including surfboard length, riding style, and the kind of wave that is ridden. In tow-in surfing (most often, but not exclusively, associated with big wave surfing), a motorized water vehicle, such as a personal watercraft, tows the surfer into the wave front, helping the surfer match a large wave's higher speed, which is generally a higher speed than a self-propelled surfer can obtain. Surfing-related sports such aspaddleboarding and sea kayaking do not require waves, and other derivative sports such as kitesurfing andwindsurfing rely primarily on wind for power, yet all of these platforms may also be used to ride waves. Recently with the use of V-drive boats, wakesurfing, in which one surfs on the wake of a boat, has emerged. The Guinness Book of World Records recognized a 78 feet (23.8 m) wave ride by Garrett McNamara at NazaréPortugal as the largest wave ever surfed.[1]

    Swell is generated when wind blows consistently over a large area of open water, called the wind's fetch. The size of a swell is determined by the strength of the wind and the length of its fetch and duration. Because of this, surf tends to be larger and more prevalent on coastlines exposed to large expanses of ocean traversed by intense low pressure systems.
    Local wind conditions affect wave quality, since the surface of a wave can become choppy in blustery conditions. Ideal conditions include a light to moderate "offshore" wind, because it blows into the front of the wave, making it a "barrel"or "tube" wave. Waves are Left handed and Right Handed depending upon the breaking formation of the wave.
    Waves are generally recognized by the surfaces over which they break.[5] For example, there are Beach breaks, Reef breaks and Point breaks.
    The most important influence on wave shape is the topography of the seabed directly behind and immediately beneath the breaking wave. The contours of the reef or bar front becomes stretched by diffraction. Each break is different, since each location's underwater topography is unique. At beach breaks, sandbanks change shape from week to week. Surf forecasting is aided by advances in information technology. Mathematical modeling graphically depicts the size and direction of swells around the globe.
    Swell regularity varies across the globe and throughout the year. During winter, heavy swells are generated in the mid-latitudes, when the North and South polar fronts shift toward the Equator. The predominantly Westerly winds generate swells that advance Eastward, so waves tend to be largest on West coasts during winter months. However, an endless train of mid-latitude cyclones cause the isobars to become undulated, redirecting swells at regular intervals toward the tropics.
    East coasts also receive heavy winter swells when low-pressure cells form in the sub-tropics, where slow moving highsinhibit their movement. These lows produce a shorter fetch than polar fronts, however they can still generate heavy swells, since their slower movement increases the duration of a particular wind direction. The variables of fetch and duration both influence how long wind acts over a wave as it travels, since a wave reaching the end of a fetch behaves as if the wind died.
    During summer, heavy swells are generated when cyclones form in the tropics. Tropical cyclones form over warm seas, so their occurrence is influenced by El Niño & La Niña cycles. Their movements are unpredictable. They can move Westward as in 1979, when Tropical Cyclone Kerry wandered for three weeks across the Coral Sea and intoQueensland before dissipating.
    Surf travel and some surf camps offer surfers access to remote, tropical locations, where tradewinds ensure offshore conditions. Since winter swells are generated by mid-latitude cyclones, their regularity coincides with the passage of these lows. Swells arrive in pulses, each lasting for a couple of days, with a few days between each swell.

Wildlife of Hawaii features photos, links, and information about Hawaiian wild animals and plants. Hawaii has an interesting mix of species, many of which are endemic to Hawaii and many others that were introduced here from all around the World.
I have recently moved to Hawaii and am in the process of learning about and photographing its wildlife for future use on this site as well as for mynature journal. I have discovered that there are many helpful online resources available for help in finding and/or identifying Hawaiian wildlife, and I have listed my favorite ones here. I hope that you find them useful!

What’s so special about Hawaii’s volcanoes?
Hawaii emerged from the sea millions of years ago, forged by the power of volcanoes. Today, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park on Hawaii Island is one of the few places in the world where visitors can come face to face with an active volcano. This once in a lifetime chance to safely explore Kilauea, one of the world's most active volcanoes, makes Hawaii a destination unlike any other.
Remember the volcanoes at your school science fair? Unlike those steep, conical peaks, Hawaii's main volcanoes are "shield" volcanoes. Shield volcanoes produce generally fluid lava flows that form gently sloping shield-like mountains. A good example is Maunaloa, the most massive mountain on earth, deceptively covering half of Hawaii Island. 

How many active volcanoes are on Hawaii?

There are currently three active volcanoes in Hawaii. On Hawaii Island you'll find Maunaloa and Kilauea in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Maunaloa last erupted in 1984 and Kilauea has been continuously erupting since 1983. Loihi is located underwater off the southern coast of Hawaii Island. Erupting since 1996, this emerging seamount may break the surface in about 250,000 years, adding a ninth island to the Hawaiian chain. Other notable volcano craters that you can hike and explore include Haleakala on Maui as well asLeahi (Diamond Head) and the National Memorial of the Pacific at Punchbowl on Oahu.
What is Hawaii Volcanoes National Park?
Today, Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is Hawaii's #1 visitor attraction. This 377-square mile park on Hawaii Island is a living museum where visitors can witness the power of Hawaii's volcanoes in surprisingly intimate ways. You'll feel great mana, or spiritual power, here as you hike along rocky trails and desolate deserts that in time will flourish and thrive with new life.

List of rivers of Hawaii

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This is a list of rivers and streams in Hawaii (U.S. state).
Modern maps show some 360 streams in the Hawaiian Islands. However, because of the small size of the islands in comparison with continental areas, there are very few navigable rivers anywhere in the islands.
The following list is sorted by name. Click on the double triangles at the top of the "Island" column to sort the table by island.
