Day 4 - Lihue - Kailua-Kona (Big Island)

The largest of the archipelago, aptly nicknamed ‘Big Island’ is twice the size of the other Hawaiian islands combined. It’s home to vivid emerald cliffs and towering volcanic mountains, swathes of golden sand and mist-shrouded valleys. After our flight to Big island, we jump straight into seeing some of the best bits of this island. Our tour takes us along the Kona Coast to Pu’uhonua O Hanaunau National Historic Park, once the home of royal grounds and a place of refuge for ancient Hawaiian lawbreakers, historic Kailua-Kona; and Kona Coffee Plantation and Place of Refuge.
