Aloha, I can answer I would say about 99 % of all questions relating to Hawai`i.

Experience
I work for tour agencies as a tour guide so have a wonderful island experience especially from the view of travelers and newcomers to the islands. I am also a high school language teacher.

Hawaii - Hawaii's Oceans?


Expert: Malia - 5/22/2009

Question
I'm doing a report on Hawaii and I just CANNOT find Hawaii's water resources. I was thinking oceans, but I can't find the names of the oceans either!
Later I have to find soil and mineral resources, what the heck? If you know any of the answers to my questions, PLEASE, respond ASAP, if this is after Tuesday, sorry, I don't need the information anymore. :/

Answer
Aloha,
Here I am already.
Hawaii's ocean is the Pacific, no other name really.
Then you can check out the following website: http://www.hawaiidws.org/
which is the Board of Water Supply in Hawaii
and finally:

since we are volcanic islands, most of our water comes from the mountains. It gets filtered through the lava rocks and we all drink tab water here. It is fresh and healthy. Also
we have lots of rain in the mountains all year long and rarely suffer water shortage.
You can also check out some of our water companies such as:
Menehune Water
Aloha Water


Hope this helps!
Hawaii is also the only state in the nation with no fluoride in the water :-)
