And it has become a perfect escape for many in need of sunshine and positive vibes. In a time when health and personal wellness are important, there is no shortage of healthy options to lighten your spirits.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For me, travel has always been a form of wellness.

The program is the first step to ensure a safe trip for both you and your fellow travelers.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a quick video that explains their current program and what to expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"SafeTravels\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pcTdDdkmCJM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Without proof of a negative test taken within 72 hours, visitors arriving from out-of-state will be required to quarantine for ten days. The test must be taken at one of Hawaii&#8217;s &#8220;trusted testing partners.&#8221; Results must be uploaded to the Safe Travels App.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, with the state&#8217;s Pre-Travel Testing Program, all individuals showing a negative test result on arrival can bypass the 10-day quarantine and head straight to their hotel. Therefore, make sure you receive the result before you board your flight and keep your phone fully charged.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-safety-while-traveling-in-waikiki\">Safety While Traveling in Waikiki<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You will find that masks are required in public venues throughout Waikiki and social distancing is still enforced. With these protocols in place, you can safely explore and enjoy the island as others have done in the past.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When Hawaii first opened its doors back up to mainland tourists in October, there were some rumors that travelers were not welcome on the islands. However, that was not the case in Oahu. Locals and professionals in the tourism industry, especially in Waikiki, are happy to have travelers back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped

Some agents are booking more Hawaii than they ever have before, and it\u2019s showing.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Outrigger Resorts have been a pioneer of change through the pandemic. Some of their hotels have been open from the very beginning to accommodate first responders and military personnel and have worked to find the best protocols to keep people safe during their stay.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They provide the highest standards for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outrigger.com\/landing-pages\/services\/clean-commitment-details\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">health and safety<\/a> at each of their properties while still ensuring a welcoming culture.

Nothing makes you feel better than a warm ocean breeze and a view of the Pacific from your balcony. My heart rate immediately dropped, and I quickly forgot about the daily stress of living in a pandemic.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Beachcomber is in a perfect location for visiting the beach and hitting the shops. You can certainly feel the aloha spirit with its surf-inspired murals by photographer Zak Noyle and its Instagram-friendly common areas throughout the hotel.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You won\u2019t need to go far for your morning coffee or an afternoon drink. The Hawaiian Aroma Caf\u00e9, which boasts the highest quality espresso drinks and latte art in Waikiki, is located directly across from the lobby. The Maui Brewing Company is located right next door, offering craft beers and nightly happy hours.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped
