Sightseeing
Magic Sands Beach Park
Ali'i DriveSo fun! Most popular beach!
Our favorite beach on the entire island. Be sure to be there by 8:30 when it opens so you can have the beach to yourself before the crowd gets there! :) White sand, baby blue waters, it's stunning.

Praia Waialea
Old Puako RoadSuper fun beach! Great to snorkel at.
A 3-mile hike there and a 3-mile hike back but totally worth it! Start hiking as early as possible and you'll have the entire green sand beach to yourself! If you're not a hiker, you can take a 4WD to the beach.

Best spot in Kona to chill and relax in a hammock, watch the sunset, do picnics, or do yoga. The turtles love to come to take naps on the shore. :)
