Picnic Backpack

Planning honeymoon trip would like a few suggestions about location, whales, secrets (if willing to share)?
Hi, My fiance and I are planing to go to the islands, Hilo is where he has some family but we are not in touch with them at this moment.
We want to spend 2 weeks 1 week for a cruise around the island and the last week at 1 or 2 locations to really soak it up.
When would be a good time to take the cruise so it will increase our odds to see a whale? or what months are they more active?
What about some state and local parks. are their any main island rules that one should know about prior to hiking or even backpacking?
What other suggestions do you have for a couple that loves the outdoors, and the true culture of Hawaii? Historical sites?
Really i guess i could of summed this up by tell me what you know? any unique locations for a morning picnic. (yeah i'm that corny) lol
any help is appreciated thank you for your time.
The humpback whales come to Hawaii from the coast of Alaska and British Columbia during the winter and have their babies, then migrate back there in spring. They can not eat while in Hawaii, the mothers lose a huge amount of weight producing milk for the babies, and have to go back to feed as soon as the weather warms up further north.
Backpacking and hiking: I LOVE to hike in the tropical forest. Do watch out for "Kapu" (Tabu) signs and steer clear of private lands, as many locals and native hawaiians frown on tourists. Make sure to wear strong Tevas or flip-flops if you go. Regular sports shoes will be so muddy and wet, will be unsable afterwards. I see a lot of broken cheap rubber flip-flops along the trails, have no idea how people walk through the jungle barefoot! Wear repellent.

The most glamorous archeological site is on the Big Island, south of Kailua-Kona (on the west side of the island, opposite from Hilo) in Kealakekua Bay, the City of Refuge. Amazing and exotic site.

Also near Kailua-Kona in Keauhou, the manta rays come to shore at night at the Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort...they shine light on the water and as there is no coral to protect the shoreline, deep-sea wildlife comes right to shore attracted to the plankton attracted to the lights. You can also do a night-time "torch" dive to swim with the mantas now.

You should stop at the cloud-forest town above Kailua-Kona of Holoalua. It is an artist's colony with a great B&B, but also interesting because this is the center of the Kona Coffee cooperative.

North of Kailua-Kona is the Kohala Coast where a lot of the 5-star luxury resorts are. It is also the location of a boat ditch ride which is both historical and fun, has GREAT reviews:

(Note: the ditch suffered some damage in the 2006 earthquake, check to make sure it is operational again).
Are you going to Maui? They have a new line of guided adventures cal the "zipline" where you jump off the cliffs tethered to a line. You hike up into the mountains, they start you off easy and cliffs become progressively higher.

And while we are at it, since you are on your honeymoon, if you are in Maui, drive the beautiful road to Hana through the jungle and stay at one of their great beach resorts. Very isolated, beautiful.

You should be able to take a helicopter to the Na Pali coast of Kauai and have a private picnic in a inaccessible spot of paradise. They pick you up later.
