The youngest island the Hawaiian archipelago is the Big Island of Hawaii, which is growing in size to this day. This island was called the "Island of Orchids" due to the wonderful thick cover of these extraordinary flowers throughout Hawaii. Orchid flowers are not the only property of the island. In this region, there is a very diverse nature, in which there is a collection of unique attractions that are scattered in 11 climatic zones of the island. Here is the largest national park in the state, which is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List, as well as the top of Mount Mauna Kea, which goes deep into the ocean depths, with the eponymous scientific reserve and observatory. These lands gave rise to one of the greatest active volcanoes in the world, from which hundreds of kilometers of deserts with incredible lava fields extend. This island also has unique black sand beaches of Kiholo Bay, plunging in awe of landscapes from frozen lava rivers, pillars and stalagmites, as well as the stunning Tarston lava pipes. The Museum of Seismography and Volcanology is also located here. Along the coastline is an unusual, covered with a lush canopy of rainforest, a valley with many waterfalls and high cliffs, which is also called the "Valley of the Kings", due to the fact that many of the Hawaiian rulers used to live here. The valley has cultural and historical significance in the life of the Hawaiian population, once there were the most fertile lands and a favorable climate for farming. Here you can make an original walk on foot or by car. We also recommend visiting the famous National Historical Park of Hawaiian Culture, the astronaut Alison Onizuk Museum, the Rainbow Falls Nature Reserve and the Akaka Falls Waterfall Park, the Royal Palace, Ka-Laz Rocks, a tree nursery park, many botanical gardens and Umauma Falls, a marine reserve Kealakekua Bay, which is located on the colorful coastal cliffs, where the sailor James Cook once met his tragic end. And, of course, almost the most important issue for a vacation in Hawaii are Hawaiian beaches. The largest and most popular and most likely the best beach of the island is Hapuna Beach, with golden sand quite rarely found on the island, as well as clear water, coconut palms and a picturesque border of the tropical garden. Among the beaches of black sand of magmatic origin, the most famous is Panal Beach, whose main attraction, in addition to the unusual color of the sand, are giant sea turtles. The unimaginable green color of sand, which comes from the semiprecious stone of chrysolite, you will see on the beach of Papacolea. For a family vacation with children, Kikaua beach is ideal, the sea waters are almost always calm here, and the bottom of the hollow goes deep. Fans of secluded relaxation will be very pleased with the snow-white coast of the beaches of Maninovali and Makalaven. One of the most popular entertainments on Big Island is fishing, where marlin hunting is especially appreciated, and, of course, snorkeling, or snorkeling, and diving. There is a special charm for night dives, when you can see the giant sea ramps of Manta Ray.
