Have you ever heard of or considered Hammock Camping?


http://www.hennessyhammock.com/

Even if you don't have a Hennessy Hammock to cocoon yourself with you can still take a hammock with you on vacation. Remember not to pack your vacation so full you don't have time to kick back, swing, and relax.

Pick your remote tropical island or cool woodsy retreat and take the luxury of a hammock with you! Even if it's just for 2 or 3 nights out of your vacation itinerary, it will be a unique yet simple luxurious experience. Great for unplugging and relaxing. Take a book. Walk the beach at sunset. Or perhaps an exhilarating hike through a tropical forest leading to a swim under a cooling waterfall.

Maniniholo Dry Cave, On the North shore of the island
