Hawaii, Fiji & New Zealand Gap Semester | Pacific Discovery

Journey through Hawaii, Fiji, and New Zealand on a 10-week adventure that blends exploration, cultural immersion, and personal growth. Surf volcanic coastlines, hike through lush rainforests, and volunteer on conservation projects that protect Polynesian ecosystems and honor Indigenous traditions. Engage in meaningful cultural exchange—learn traditional crafts, connect with local elders, and experience daily life through a lens of respect and curiosity. This isn’t just travel; it’s hands-on learning with real impact. Whether you're supporting reforestation efforts or participating in community-based initiatives, your contributions are grounded in ethical partnerships. With leadership development, guided reflection, and a close-knit group of peers, you'll build confidence, skills, and a clearer sense of purpose. Whether you’re on a gap year, seeking academic credit, building your resume, or craving deeper connection, this journey offers challenge, insight, and transformation. Explore with intention. Return with purpose. Reach out to Learn More!

We went to the most beautiful and magical places

I don’t think many people will ever be able to explore Hawaii the way we did. We went to the most beautiful and magical places I have ever seen and lived so much in just four weeks. I can’t recommend this program enough. If you just want to travel around with a group of best friends and explore a new culture and do crazy activities, I promise you won’t regret signing up.
