HONOLULU, HAWAII

The widest state in the U.S., with more than 100 beaches, Honolulu is the volcanic archipelago of the Central Pacific. It is also perfectly fine to mail a coconut anywhere from here. Plastic bags are banned in Hawaii, and coffee is home grown. Also, snakes are outlawed, as are billboards. In this gorgeous paradise, you'll see why Elvis loved to vacation in the area. Home to the military’s Indo-Pacific Command, Honolulu is known for tourism, Waikiki Beach, and the dormant volcano, Diamond Head. Don't worry, it isn't gonna blow. Have a cold brew in one of these fine establishments:
