"This cute little botanical garden admittedly doesn’t require much walking, but it’s a great serene spot to explore in Kona, stretch your legs, or bring your lunch. Each terrace of the garden showcases different plants, including native Hawaiian, Austalia, New Zealand, Indonesia, and Central America. There’s no admission fee, though donations are accepted, and you can stop and shop at the adjacent thrift store that supports the garden."

"This popular beach is one of the best places to see sea turtles in Kona. ‘Alula Beach is an easy five minute walk from parking at the harbor. Once at the beach, you can walk further down the coastline, but won’t need to walk far if you just want to set up your beach chairs."

"After catching some color and before checking out Kailua town, go for a stroll along Honokohau Beach and get acquainted with the Big Island’s cutest residents – the Green Sea Turtles. The beach is part of Kaloko-Honokōhau National Historic Park and is free to enter. Just park your car at the small harbor’s lot and walk passed the signposted gate onto the trail."

"Makalawena/Pu’u Ali’i Beach is another prominent place in Kailua Kona located off the hiking trail near Kona Coast State Park. It has been called a place of nirvana. Although a bit challenging to get to, the reward far exceeds its strains. Here, you will enjoy pleasant moments while witnessing stunning views as well as the beautiful turquoise waters that are always breathtaking in Hawaii."

"In the morning, catch a flight to the island of Hawaii (often referred to as “The Big Island” so as not to confuse it with the state of Hawaii) and pick up another rental car near Kona airport. The Big Island is the largest of islands (surprise!), so you’ll definitely want a car to get around."

"Start your trip by picking up your rental car from one of the car rental offices at the Kona Airport. Kona is the sunny outdoor capital of the Big Island and you will spend your first two days and nights here enjoying the beach."

"After breakfast continue south to the Pu’uhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park (also known as the city of refuge or Honaunau Bay) to learn about the ancient practices and rituals of the native Hawaiians and finish up with some snorkeling at one of the best snorkeling spots on the island: Two Step (at 300 ft. from the park entrance). This is a favorite snorkeling spot for many locals and a culturally significant place for the Hawaiian people. Please remember to be respectful to both the animals and the surroundings."
