Island Hopping

See the Sights

Hang out in Hawaii and watch the surfers via live webcam on Oahu at Pipeline, or take in a sunset at Waimea Bay. I loved listening to the waves!

Explore the U.S. Virgin Islands National Park, and take a virtual tour of the historic windmills and plantations.

Go on this interactive tour of the Galapagos Islands.

Check out the bioluminescent bay in Vieques, Puerto Rico.

Fun things you can do at home

Do an experiment building an aluminum foil boat, or try building a sailboat.

Try some Caribbean recipes!

Make a Hawaiian lei and have a luau.

Design some sand art (using salt!) with some beachy scenes.

Make an ocean in a bottle.
