Why to visit Kailua Kona
This beachfront town on the Big Island is known as Kailua Kona by the locals and is famed for its beaches lined with volcanic rocks, plentiful sun, adventurous water sports, and a few old buildings.
One of the most popular activities here is the Kona Manta Ray Night Dive, and snorkelling in the clear waters of Kealakekua Bay allows you to marvel at the spectacular coral structures on the ocean floor. If you enjoy spending time on farms, Kona has numerous coffee, vanilla, honey, and chocolate farms/producers that provide tours. Take a helicopter tour of Volcano National Park for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure.
Hulihee Palace in Kailua Kona, which was once a royal holiday residence, has been restored into a historic home with an impressive collection of antiquities and is the main attraction here. Kaloko-Honok, Hau National Historical Park, Hualai, Alii Drive, Kamakahonu National Historic Landmark, and Mokuaikaua Church are among the other attractions in Kailua Kona.
This city is located on the west coast of Hawaii Island, between Kailua Bay and the active Hualalai volcano. The city is a thriving centre for commerce and tourism. Once upon a time, the city was a fishing community with multiple fishponds.
