Located in the Pacific Northwest, this incredible city is surrounded by mountains, evergreen forests, parklands and water. Is a must when visiting the state of Washington, as well as the futuristic Space Needle, its most iconic city landmark.
Hawaii, on the other hand, is a state of the United States in the Pacific Ocean, almost 2,000 miles away from the country´s mainland. Known as the only state outside of North America, the Island of Hawaii is famous for its nature, beaches, volcanoes and multiple adventures that are perfect for spending vacations or even relocating.
Taking a flight from Seattle to Honolulu, Hawaii's state capital, takes approximately 6 hours. The island is located around 2677 miles away from the city, crossing the pacific ocean from each of both locations.
Driving in Hawaii is very simple due to the good condition of the highways, which means traveling across the island by car is accessible as well. Sounds great, doesn´t it? Even greater if you have the possibility to drive your own car across both amazing states.
