Hana Highway

The Hana Highway creeps round the east coast of Hawaii in a clockwise direction, cut into the fingers of rainforest that probe the pacific. The views of oncoming coves and juts of jungle are breathtaking, as is the driving experience. Many of the bridges you cross date back to the early 20th century and consequently were not built to accommodate two lanes of motorised traffic. 30 miles at 15 miles an hour round blind bends on the edge of a cliff is an exhausting experience for the driver, but a safari through paradise for any passengers.
