Introduction to Hawaii Island for Visitors
The island of Hawaii is
often called "The Big Island" to distinguish it from

It is the largest of the Hawaiian islands,
and its area (4028 square miles)
is more then twice the size of
all of the other islands combined.
The island was formed from five major volcanoes,
and exploring those volcanoes is one of the most popular
