Extreme Helicopter Ride, Mt. Kilauea, The Big Island

Kilauea means spewing in Hawaiian and it’s a perfect description for this turbulent volcano. It’s been active since 1952 and what’s the best way to observe a volcano if not from the air? There are helicopter rides right above the active volcano from where you can see the lava from a distance of 500 feet. This high-temperature experience is absolutely incredible.

Extreme Kiteboarding, Kite Beach, Maui

The blue waters of Hawaii are perfect for sailing, windsurfing, and surfing. Since 1998 kiteboarding has been very popular in these waters, which originated when a group of surfers decided to make a combination of sports and attach a kite to themselves. Riding the waves this way is more fun, it lifts you up in the air, and it’s very fast.
