Big Island - Gold Medal Winner

by ClarkRB - last update: Oct 19, 2006

Hawai‘i Island, Hawai‘i
NOTE: These tips were made prior to the earthquake of October 2006.

Our ongoing tour of Hawai‘i started early morning in February 2006; a puddle jumper flight from Honolulu on Oahu Island to Hilo on Hawai‘i Island (known as the Big Island.) Of our entire time through the Hawaiian Islands, Big Island would eventually prove to be our favorite island, hands down. The diversity, history, extreme climate changes, and the overall atmosphere of Big Island created a 24/7 smile.

It was difficult to keep up with the beauty that surrounded us. Photo taking began before we even landed, and continued even after we departed. That's the kind of place Big Island is...you just can't put your camera down. We circled the entire island throughout our stay. Prepare to join us after the fact on a journey that takes you from the jungle of the east side, to the volcano, to the party scenes in Kona, to the history of Hawai‘i's earlier kingdom, down to that perfect sunset.

Pros:"History, beaches, wildlife, flora; everything!"
Cons:"Expensive"
In A Nutshell:"This is the Hawaii Gold Medal winner"

 As one who wears a Hawaiian shirt to work every day, I shouldn't have enjoyed your Big Island pages so much! But thanks for the great tips. I'll be returning with my parents in two weeks, and maybe stop at Lulu's!

 Having fun reading through your tips, hope you don't mind if I "friend" for easy access later on!

 Your Big Island pictures and tips are wonderful!! We spent 3 weeks in Hawaii last summer. We actually walked down into Waipio Valley. The hike back up was a killer!! :-)
