class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Yes, it is safe to drink and use tap water on the island of Oahu including in Waikiki. The Board of Water Supply in Hawaii works in conjunction with State and Federal agencies, such as the U.S Environmental Protection Agency and Hawaii State Department of Health, to ensure the water in Hawaii is safe to drink.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"does-hawaii-have-the-cleanest-tap-water\"><\/span>Does Hawaii have the cleanest tap water?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>According to the Board of Water Supply, Hawaii&#39;s tap water is of the highest quality.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-clean-is-hawaii-water\"><\/span>How Clean Is Hawaii water?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The short answer is: Yes. According to the Board of Water Supply, Hawaii tap water is some of the best quality drinking water around. It is rainwater that is naturally filtered through underground porous volcanic rock for about 25 years before it reaches aquifers.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-the-water-in-hawaii-polluted\"><\/span>Is the water in Hawaii polluted?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>We have 88,000 cesspools in Hawaii, and they&#39;re contributing over 53 million gallons of polluted wastewater every single day into our environment,\u201d said Lauren Blickley, Hawaii Regional Manager for the Surfrider Foundation.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"how-does-hawaii-get-fresh-drinking-water\"><\/span>How does Hawaii get fresh drinking water?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Most of Hawaii&#39;s fresh water comes from onshore aquifers, which are layers of rock and soil underground that collect water after rainfall. The team believes that this newfound reservoir is replenished by water flowing out of these aquifers.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"is-hawaii-having-a-water-shortage\"><\/span>Is Hawaii having a water shortage?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Now, thanks to the U<br \/> military and overtourism, the people of Hawaii are facing one of the largest water crises they have ever seen. Navy fuel contamination has severely threatened their water supply, posing dangerous health risks, while the tourism sector guzzles water as usual.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"will-oahu-run-out-of-water\"><\/span>Will Oahu run out of water?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The island of Oahu has sufficient fresh water to supply its near term needs but will begin to strain its fresh water supplies within 100 years. The Hawaii State government estimates that the population on Oahu will increase to about 1,130,000 by 2030 which will demand approximately 206 mgd.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-are-major-problems-in-hawaii\"><\/span>What are major problems in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Population Size. There were 1,374,810 people (2011 estimate) living in Hawaii, not including tourists.  <\/li>\n<li>Traffic Congestion. Hawaii residents and visitors alike frequently complain about bad traffic.  <\/li>\n<li>Junk Cars. Abandoned junk cars are a state-wide problem in Hawaii.  <\/li>\n<li>Drug Epidemic.  <\/li>\n<li>Noise.  <\/li>\n<li>High Electricity Costs.  <\/li>\n<li>Other Troubles.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-is-hawaii-water-brown\"><\/span>Why is Hawaii water brown?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>What makes brown so bad? The state Department of Health points out that it&#39;s likely the water has waste from overflowed cesspools or sewer manholes, pesticides, dead animals, animal fecal matter, chemicals and other debris associated with floods.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-is-hawaii-in-danger\"><\/span>Why is Hawaii in danger?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Since Hawaii is located in the middle of a vast ocean and the ocean bottom drops off quickly, the waves and currents can be very big and powerful. Certain beaches are hazardous year-round while others are dangerous at certain times of the year.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-is-the-deadliest-thing-in-hawaii\"><\/span>What is the deadliest thing in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The most dangerous thing in Hawaii is the ocean, and drowning is \u201cthe leading cause of death for tourists in Hawaii,\u201d but other dangers lurk beneath the water and underfoot.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-should-i-avoid-in-hawaii\"><\/span>What should I avoid in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Don&#39;t stand next to the blowhole.  <\/li>\n<li>Don&#39;t eat at a chain restaurant.  <\/li>\n<li>Don&#39;t let a commercial luau be your only exposure to Hawaiian culture.  <\/li>\n<li>Don&#39;t limit your visit to O\u02bbahu.  <\/li>\n<li>And don&#39;t avoid the Island of Hawai\u02bbi.  <\/li>\n<li>Don&#39;t only stay in resort towns.  <\/li>\n<li>Don&#39;t hike illegally or start a hike late in the day.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"where-should-you-avoid-in-hawaii\"><\/span>Where should you avoid in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Wahiawa.

Hawaii experiences a spike in visitors from mid-December to New Year, resulting in high accommodation, plane tickets, and rental car costs. December is also the wettest month of the year as temperatures cool across the Hawaiian islands.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"why-are-there-no-mosquitoes-in-hawaii\"><\/span>Why are there no mosquitoes in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Mosquitoes are not endemic to the Hawaii; they were introduced in the early 1800s via whaling ships. Because of the extreme isolation of the Hawaiian Islands, native species had not developed resistance to mosquito-borne diseases.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"are-roaches-common-in-hawaii\"><\/span>Are roaches common in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Cockroaches in Hawaii There are thousands of species of cockroaches in the United States.

There are also numerous kinds of native sea-birds.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"what-predators-live-in-hawaii\"><\/span>What predators live in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Relevant to All Islands For the most part, you are very safe on the Hawaiian Islands from all animal and plant life. There are no large predators or snakes, and there are few plants that will cause irritation when hiking (no poison oak or ivy, for example).<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"are-there-tigers-in-hawaii\"><\/span>Are there tigers in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>To put it in perspective, Hawaii has no poisonous land snakes, bears, crocodiles, hippos, leopards, komodo dragons, hyenas, lions, tigers, poisonous dart frogs, rhinos, etc.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"are-there-rats-in-hawaii\"><\/span>Are there rats in Hawaii?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Rats and mice breed year-round in Hawai&#39;i.
