--Second, what's your primary reason for the trip? Your girl friend (fiancee, wife??) will be there, with you. Do everything with her. Don't leave her out, watching you from afar. Take her to the water, enjoy it's warmth, colorful fish, with her. Move around, see new things, with her. Make this a special trip for her, and keep her comfortable. I took my family to Hawaii in 1986, snorkeling on several beaches. My wife had been practicing swimming, but not snorkeling. We went out a ways, and played around in 20 feet or so of water. The boys and I had great fun; my wife felt abandoned. We have not been back to Hawaii since, though we're still married. I still hear from her about it too; make this a special trip for you and your girl friend.
