Big Island of Hawaii

The largest and youngest of the Hawaiian Islands, Hawaii is a land of amazing contrasts and a display of natural wonders.

Mt. Kilauea, the world's most active volcano, offers visitors a glimpse at one of nature's most dynamic forces. Frequently spilling molten lava into the sea, it continuously adds to the 266 miles of coastline and gives Hawaii its nickname of the "Big Island".

Exploring comes naturally on Hawaii; experience the green pastures and lush valleys of Waimea, the tropical rainforests and cascading waterfalls of the Hamakua coast and the island's multi-hued beaches of white, green and rich volcanic black sand.

Diverse beauty and extraordinary sights capture the energy of creation that is Hawaii.

POINTS OF INTEREST:

KONA & KOHALA COAST: With 40 miles of historical coastline, the Kona and Kohala coast features many significant cultural Hawaiian sites. Visit King's Trail, an ancient path filled with petroglyphys, and don't miss Puukohola Heiau, the last temple built during Kamehameha I's reign.

PANAEWA RAINFOREST ZOO: The only tropical rainforest zoo in America, this attraction features exotic & endangered creatures such as the native Hawaiian hawk, rare pygmy hippos and magnificent tigers.

MAUNA KEA OBSERVATORY: Stargaze at the clearest, most pitch-black spot on Earth and experience the night sky in a whole new way. Snow-capped Mauna Kea Observatory is considered to be the world's largest optical and infrared observatory, home to the Keck Telescope.

HAWAII VOLCANOES NATIONAL PARK: Visit Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and experience Mt. Kilauea, the world's most active volcano. With several outlook points and a series of trails, this popular attraction will take you close the edge of the action; close enough to warm the soles of your shoes!
