Diesel engines soon followed and, before long, ocean liners plied seas around the world.

Beyond the Beach: See Hawai’i’s Diverse Verdant and Volcanic Landscapes on an Island-Hopping Cruise

This is the ultimate fate of these low, sandy islets ringing a lagoon: Eventually these last remnants of a once large volcanic island will sink beneath the waves, completing a story that began 1,500 miles away.

You can still see the relics of the famous World War II battle here as well as a million nesting albatrosses and other seabirds.
