The tourist spots suck unless you're a touristy type. But the places that are even slightly more offbeat go up in quality of experience really quickly.
I haven't been in 20 years, though. When I lived there, through high school and first couple years of college, I loved the Bamboo Forest in Manoa, Makapu Beach, and the Pali Lookout. But you have to walk all over the Pali Lookout, not just hang around at the most touristy spot there. Hike! Find whatever spots there are there now to hike in that aren't overrun, and it will be very nice.
Also, if you're going to go to the Big Island, you owe yourself a day or two to walk around INSIDE the volcano craters. It's absolutely incredible, like being on a different planet. Just fantastic.
