If you are planning on making your way back home to the islands or planning a visit in the near future, here are some updates on the Hawai'i travel restrictions and protocol. 

Beginning August 1st, Gov. David Ige announced that travelers who are coming from out of state must show proof of a negative result from a valid COVID-19 test prior to arrival in the Islands. This will allow them to avoid the 14-day quarantine upon entering Hawai'i. Those who are unable to take the test or chose not to will be mandated to take part in the quarantine process.

Just as the ever-changing diverse forces of nature that make up Maui, legendary Hawaiian musician, Willi K, shook the world with his diverse and almost unnatural musical abilities that surely surpassed the world before him. 

Born William Awihilima Kahaiali’i, Uncle Willie K was from Lahaina, Maui, and was unfortunately diagnosed with lung cancer in January of 2018. He continued performing for the majority of his diagnosis because that’s where his heart and passion lived, performing and making the people of Hawai’i smile. 

After a quiet and lengthy battle, Willie K quietly passed away at 59 years old with his family surrounding him in his Wailuku home on the night of May 18th.
