another option is to fly into Honolulu (which may be cheaper) and see Pearl Harbor and Mighty Mo (Get the delux tour - well worth it!) then fly out that evening to the Big Isle or better yet Maui!!!! - that way you don't have to have a room on multiple islands and airfare often comes out about the same (flights into Honolulu tend to be about as much less as an interisland flight is)
Aloha, Tim
P.S. if you decide on Maui (the smart choice ) drop me a PM and we'll see about doing some diving together while you're here. If you are looking for a good guide service check out Shaka Doug ( a member here) and for boats look into B&B Scuba (Molokini) as well as Extended Horizons (Lanai Cathedrals) for the 2 "big" boat trips of note on Maui...
