Hawaii Safety Tips

When visiting Hawaii, follow common sense and these basic safety tips.

Ocean Safety Tips

  • The beaches and waters in Hawaii are some of the most beautiful in the world. And though the ocean is amazing, it could also become dangerous.
  • Swim only where there are lifeguards on duty nearby.
  • Pay attention to signs posted on the beach.
  • Don't swim out too far, hidden undercurrents can overpower you.
Fresh Water Safety Tips

  • Don't swim in ponds or streams if you have open cuts on your skin. The bacteria could lead to infection.
  • Don't drink the water without purifying it with purification tablets. Better yet, purchase bottled water.
Personal Safety Tips

  • Don't carry a lot of cash. If you must, use a hidden money belt.
  • Leave precious jewelry at home. If you purchase any expensive items on your trip, consider shipping them back stateside rather than carrying them with you.
  • Keep your shopping bags, handbags and luggage with you at all times, particularly in crowded areas, such as shopping districts, beaches, hotel lobbies and at the airport.
Hiking and Biking Safety Tips

  • Hawaii is an incredible place to hike, bike and horseback ride. If you going to go out on the trails, be sure you have a map.
  • Don't go alone, if at all possible. Partner up with a more experienced hiker or a local person from the area.
  • Carry a cell phone, in case of emergency, and plenty of bottled water.
  • Let someone know where you are going. Mention it to others you are traveling with, or even call someone back home to let them. This way, if you get lost, someone will know where to begin looking.
