Kilohana chief administrator Tyler Gomes says regenerative or sustainable tourism must start with community input. “Right now, a lot of the revenue that’s generated through tourism doesn’t stay in the state,” he says. “In order for tourism to be accepted, the community will have to feel that it is getting benefits beyond congestion, beyond development, beyond a simple drain on its resources.” He noted that when opposition to a project is as strong as in the case of Mount Ka’ala, “that’s a sign that the community is probably hurting and doesn’t feel like people are listening. Advocates have to ask…

Last updated on June 23, 2023 This summer I celebrated my recent wedding with four of my best friends at the island of Sao Miguelthe largest of the Portuguese Azores islands. It was actually a postponed bachelor party. Only I was already married and the Azores are definitely not Las Vegas. Still, it was a perfect destination because it was more or less exactly halfway between Europe and the US, where three of my friends were from. São Miguel Island and the Azores are known as the Hawaii of Europe because of their tropical climate and lush greenery. The Azores…
