Top 5 things to do
Kona coffee country
Visit a working farm in Kona coffee country to see how local coffee is grown and processed. It connects a familiar product to the slopes and agricultural landscape where it is produced.
Puuhonua o Honaunau
Explore Puuhonua o Honaunau for an important Hawaiian cultural and historic landscape. The site gives you a more grounded sense of place alongside the island's beaches, lava, and outdoor excursions.
Kealakekua Bay
Spend time on Kealakekua Bay by snorkeling or paddling in its protected clear water. The combination of water, coastline, and history makes it a worthwhile half-day away from town.
Hawaii Volcanoes National Park
Use a long day for Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, where craters, lava fields, and rainforest trails show the island's volcanic scale. It is a big outing, but the landscape is unlike the Kona coast.
Manta ray night experience
Join a guided manta ray night snorkel or boat experience for an evening built around seeing the rays in the water. It gives you a memorable nighttime activity instead of another daytime beach stop.
