The Hawaiian Islands. If you haven't been yet, perhaps lifting off in a helicopter for an aerial view of a luminescent lava stream or views of incredible rushing waterfalls has been on your bucket list. Dreams of escaping to a warm sandy beach, drink in hand, as the sounds of waves crashing and vitamin D-soaked laughter delighting ears have enticed millions upon millions of tourists every year. It is a destination noted for its hospitality in warmth and relaxation.
Though hospitable to your dream vacation, these islands of volcanic origin are home to the Hawaiian hot spot - at present boiling underneath the Big Island of Hawaii. Five different major volcanoes decorate the Big Island with their torrid presence: Kilauea (kill lawe way yuh), Mauna Loa, Mauna Kea (kay-ah) , Hualalai (hoo-la-la-aye), and Kohala (koe-hal-uh.) The largest active volcano on Earth is Mauna Loa. But at present, the most productive volcano on Earth in terms of lava flow production is Kilauea.
