Hawaii news sites and blogs will help you stay current when you take your next Hawaii vacation.
You can also find out about local events, festivals, cultural gatherings, and other topics of interest.
These are some of the main Hawaii news sites and blogs to check out during your next Hawaii vacation:
- Honolulu Star-Advertiser keeps you up to date on news across all the islands, not just Honolulu. There are classified ads, blogs on various topics, and all the newspaper sections you’d expect to find in a major newspaper and news site.
- Hawaii Reporter used to be a news site, but in 2016 it was rebranded as a lifestyle magazine that publishes feature articles submitted by volunteer contributors. Topics focus on business and technology, entertainment, local events, and more.
- KITV is a TV news station based in Honolulu. This site is ideal for anyone who wants to keep up on breaking local news. You can sign up for alerts, download the KITV app for your mobile device, and follow them on social media to stay in the know.
- KHON2 is another Hawaii TV station that covers local, national, and international news. You can download a news app, a weather app, sign up for text alerts, and even watch the live TV stream from the web.
- Hawaii Tribune-Herald is one of the most popular Hawaii news sites and blogs that is also – as you might have guessed – a newspaper. You can view the news on the web, subscribe to an electronic edition of the paper, sign up for email alerts, and more.
- Big Island Now and Maui Now are island-specific news sites that provide local news and weather, and they post updates on social media. The news stories on these sites are typically of interest to locals and can provide insight into the community for travelers.
- Honolulu Magazine is a well-known magazine that is a great resource for the vacationer. It offers stories and features on dining, entertainment, travel, news, politics, and more. Though not a source for breaking news, it can be a good place to look if you want the inside scoop on restaurants, entertainment venues, and so on.
- Honolulu Civil Beat, ranked as the best overall news site for five years running, claims it is the “largest news outlet dedicated to public affairs reporting about Hawaii.” Taking more of an investigative approach to reporting, the site offers a great deal of local news that can give travelers a peek into the issues that matter to Hawaiians.
- The Garden Island is a good news site to check out if you visit Kauai. It offers local news and weather for Kauai, as well as national and world news. You can follow them on social media, subscribe to an electronic edition, or read the print edition when you are on the island.
Reading the top Hawaii news sites and blogs can be a good way to tune into current news and learn about events, festivals, and entertainment. It’s also useful to track Hawaii weather, which can change in an instant.
