Kona Big Island Vacation
It’s time for planning your next vacation! What’s it going to be? The usual well trodden haunts? Why not make a change? A Complete Change! For that Kona Big Island Vacation is certainly the first, no,
the only place to contact. Why, the very name already resounds with promise. Kona Big Island. Vacation on a big island? That doesn’t sound half bad. Long cool drinks on the long white endless beaches, long stemmed palm trees, rumbas and sambas and dancing girls…..intoxicating! Where on earth is Kona Big Island? Vacation, here we come! Where else would it be than Hawaii? Yes, isn’t that what you’ve always dreamt of doing sometime or other? In case you’re thinking one will get bored with too much loafing around, you’re in for a surprise…
A Kona Big Island Vacation has much, much more to offer than most people can even imagine. The wets coast of Big Island is formed by Kona and Kohala who together boast of and share in the unbelievable diversity of this sector of Big Island. The sharp contrast between the barren lava flows of the now extinct volcanoes and the lush and resplendent tropical vegetation is startling. For the adventurous minded there are many challenges. A few examples are exploring very ancient lava flows,
historical Hawaiian heiaus and baths, or hidden beaches. If that is not enough of a challenge you can always give the 13,000 ft Mauna Loa Mountain which rises up from the side of the coast a go, or its little sister, Hualalai, of only 8,000 ft! All this is yet but touching on a Kona Big Island Vacation.
What is an island without a coral reef? Indeed, Kona Big Island Vacations obliges willingly. The always enchanting dolphins abound and other tropical fish such as manta rays and moray eels are found in the coral beds. A Kona Big Island Vacation will bring you in close touch with places belonging to yesteryear. Puúhonua O Honaunau means a Place of Refuge and according to Hawaiian history was used by politicians seeking refuge, but served simultaneously as a criminal asylum. Today the sight is still preserved as sacred and is held in trust by the National Historical Park. You can also visit the fully restored remains of a royal Hawaiian palace, situated on a beautiful pitch black lava peninsula jutting out below groves of fruit and nut trees. At Kealakekua Bay you’ll find an underwater state park for the protection of the multitude of multi-hued shoals of bright and glorious fish deftly avoiding rubbing shoulders with the acrobatic spinner porpoises.
For those more interested in gastronomic delights a Kona Big Island Vacation have a few delights in store. At the tip of the Big Island, in Hawi town, there are quite a few unique restaurants. Waimea town, also known as Kamuela, should also not be overlooked for real gourmet meals. But for once, be daring, go local and have breakfast or lunch at “Hawaiian Style”. Kahila Theatre has a variety of productions to round off an evening. As for arts and crafts, you can rest assured that galleries abound with an astonishing and inviting range. A place not to miss is obviously The Kings Shops at Waikaloa. This open air, very elegant boutique promenade, offers the widest range of the very best of jewelry, clothing, art, gifts – you name it! To top all of this, Kona Big Island Vaction offers you the most perfect accommodation at The Orchid Inn, a haven of calm peaceful beauty, with the trade winds rumpling your hair, the sun kissing your face and your soul exulting in the serenity of it all.
