From Orchids to Volcanoes
The Big Island is the largest Hawaiian island. Built over five volcanoes, it is an island of contrasts. From the deserts of Ka'u to the rainforests of Hamakua, from the snow capped peak of Mauna Kea to the warm golden beaches of Kona, the island is still growing thanks to the world's most active volcano, Kilauea.
Visit Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and hike Kilauea, explore lava tubes, steam vents and sulphur banks, and marvel at the ancient petroglyphs. Kilauea, the world's most active volcano, has been spewing lava almost continuously since 1983. View the liquid fire of creation, flowing molten lava as it makes it's way over 20 miles downhill to the sea.
Mauna Kea, at over 13,000 feet above sea level, is the tallest volcano in Hawaii and, when measured from it's base on the ocean floor, is the world's tallest mountain. Visit the world class observatories on the peak of Mauna Kea but be prepared for thin air and possible snow. Flurries can happen even in summer. Mauna Loa, slightly shorter than Mauna Kea, spreads over half the island and is the world's largest volcano. The mountain's massive weight has created a depression in the ocean floor more than 5 miles deep!
Explore historic Hilo on the lush western coast. Waterfalls, orchids, lava caves, and tide pools abound on this tropical side of the Big Island. Drive to Ka Lae (South Point) to stand on the southernmost point of the United States. Watch the boats launch by being hoisted down over 400 foot cliffs to the sea. Hike a few miles over Ka Lae bluffs to the Green Sand Beach (yes, the sand really is green!).
Relax in the warmth of the Kona coast with it's beautiful beaches, world class golf courses, and spectacular resorts. Visit the black sand beach at the northern end of the road in Pololu, walk the Waikoloa Petroglyph fields, dive or snorkel for manta ray and sea turtles, indulge in fine dining.
