Cosmos Global Documentaries HAWAII THE ISLANDS OF ALOHA

Honolulu, the capital of the Hawaiian Islands has developed into a lively city. In the heart of the city there's a statue in honour of King Kamehama The Third who in 1840 moved his government residence from the island of Maui to Honolulu on Oahu, thus unifying the island kingdom. In later years the Victorian Iolani Palace became the new residence of those who ruled Hawaii.

Hawaii wouldn't be Hawaii if it were not for its world famous surfers when during the winter season the northern part of Oahu with its Waimea Bay, Banzai Pipeline and Sunset Beach is extremely popular with surfers.
