Hawaiian Islands Guide Map (Franko's)
Side 1 of Franko’s Map of The Hawaiian Islands is a beautiful full view of the Hawaiian Islands chain, including the four main islands, Oahu, Kauai, Maui, and Hawaii, plus the other two “main islands”, Lanai and Molokai, the uninhabited island of Kahoolawe, and the forbidden island of Niihau. The beautiful islands are shown in green shaded relief against a fabulous series of descending shades of ocean blue as the waters around the Hawaiian Islands descend to over 3 miles deep. This map is similar to Franko’s dive maps of Oahu, Kauai, Maui, and Hawaii in that it shows the lovely Hawaiian state fish, the Humuhumu Nukunuku, Apua’a, as well as 80 other Hawaiian reef creatures. Since the beautiful sea and its wonderful creatures are so important to Hawaiians, as well as to visitors of the Hawaiian Islands, it is nice to depict the fishes and corals on the very face of the map. Franko is the original “Aqua-nut”, since 7th grade, and thus this fishy theme will always be a part of Franko’s Maps of the Hawaiian Islands as well as other islands and coasts. The islands indeed look absolutely beautiful, like green jewels, and the tropical Hawaiian reef creatures add to the beauty of the map.
For Hawaiian Islands cruise ship tourists, Franko’s Map of the Hawaiian Islands shows the relationship and distance between the islands’ ports o’ call. However, it is the flip side of the map that more closely defines the details of these ports, including Honolulu on Oahu, Hilo and Kona on Hawaii, the Big Island, Lahaina and Kahului on Maui, and Lihue (Nawiliwili Harbor) on Kauai. However, side 1 of the map also defines the basics of each of the islands of Niihau, Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, Lanai, Maui, Kahoolawe, and Hawaii with a description of island facts, such as area and population, just as an atlas of the Hawaiian Islands might read. Printed on waterproof, rip-proof plastic to survive the elements.
Side 2 of Franko’s Map of The Hawaiian Islands is the real key to this map’s information. Side 1 is nice, in that it shows the Hawaiian Islands chain as it naturally stretches across several hundred miles of North Pacific waters, but it is side 2 of Franko’s Map of the Hawaiian Islands that has the essential details of Kauai, Oahu, Maui, and Hawaii. These details capture the essence of each of the four main Hawaiian Islands with descriptions of what there is to see and do on each of the islands. Surrounding a map detail of Kauai, for example, are captions describing the things to see and do on the island of Kauai, such as helicopter tours of Waimea Canyon and the Napali Coast. The map is a reduced size, compared with Franko’s Guide Map of Kauai yet it is still loaded with information about Kauai. Similarly, the islands of Oahu, Maui, and Hawaii are mapped in beautiful shaded relief to show their volcanic mountains and cliffs, plus their cities, and sites.
