Hilo is located on the Big Island of Hawaii.This gorgeous archipelago is 1,500 miles long and perfectly exquisite.From glistening waterfalls to bubbling volcanoes, this island is as diverse as it is spectacular.The sands of Hilo range from green to black to a golden yellow depending on where you are.Gallivanting around the coast of Hilo is a much different experience than exploring any of the other portions of the Big Island.A peculiar yet extraordinary location, the beaches and sights in Hilo are incredible.If the sun is shining brightly, you are in for one of the most beautiful days imaginable.But storms come raging in at a moment's notice, pouring rain down and drenching everything.When it rains in Hilo, it really rains.Yet, this adds to the charm and uniqueness of this lush area.The tropical weather on this side of the island is magnificent, and surfing the great waves while the rain pours and the tourists watch is a one-of-a-kind experience that is truly exhilarating.With a breathtaking green forest and a rainbow-filled sky, Hilo is one of the premier destinations in the entire world.It is also the wettest city in America, with over ten feet of rain annually.If you are visiting this excellent location, be sure and pack an umbrella, and if you neglect to heed this advice, don't say we didn't warn you!Second to Honolulu, Hilo is the largest metropolis in all of Hawaii.The city is constantly misty, adding to the allure and mystery of the region.It is filled with sparkling dew-laced flowers, and the old Victorian houses are marvelous; sure to capture your heart.Of added interest in Hilo is that even though the precipitation is so high, the rain is always warm, and the temperature in and around the city almost never drops below a perfectly comfortable seventy degrees.This holds true at the coastal beaches, where you can wake up in the early morning and watch surfers without wetsuits carve up the ocean even in the pouring rain.The facilities and restaurants in Hilo are excellent as well.Hilo is rich in culture and heritage, and the accommodations and activities are surprisingly reasonable.This is also true for eating meals in Hilo, where the prices are described as budget, even though the food is absolutely delicious.

Kauai is the oldest and northernmost of all the main islands of Hawaii. Of its 533 square miles, only 3% of it is used for commercial and residents, the rest is divided between agriculture and conservation.
It is known as the "Garden State" because of its lush tropical scenery. It's beautiful and pristine landscape is a wonder to behold. Kauai's splendor has been the setting for Hollywood productions such as South Pacific, Jurassic Park, and Fantasy Island.
If you want to take a drive here it is very interesting. Although they don't believe in signs, you don't get lost because all the side roads lead back to the two main roads.
The 53 miles of pristine white beaches is incredible. While strolling along the beach you may encounter a Hawaiian Monk Seal basking in the sun. Hawaiian Monk Seals often haul up on beaches to sleep, sun, or give birth. These critically endangered marine mammals are protected under federal laws. You must stay at least 100 feet from them, and remember an agitated 400- to 600-pound wild animal could be dangerous.
Although so much of this island is under conservation, you can enjoy horseback riding, biking, fishing, camping, golf, windsurfing, scuba diving, and much, much more.

All about The Kona Coast, Big Island Hawaii
Here is a great description of one of my favorite p[laces on earth. Kona Coast Hawaii.
The picturesque Kona Coast is one of, if not the most popular destination on the Big Island of Hawaii.With beaches ranging from white sand to lava rock, and plenty of fabulous dining facilities and activities to go around, Kona is truly a vacation wonderland.The region is tropical and warm all year long, with much less rain than on the other side of the island.The Big Island of Hawaii, and Kona in particular, is becoming increasingly popular because it is not as touristy as Waikiki, or Honolulu or Oahu.The shopping in Kona is marvelous, and the locals are friendly and helpful.Anyone who is familiar with Kona knows about their outstanding coffee and terrific fishing.Fishermen take particular note, as Kona offers some of the best fishing in the entire world.The Kona coast is a seventy-mile long stretch of black lava that is breathtakingly beautiful.It is located on the leeward side of the Big Island, and many areas in Kona still remain simple and agricultural in nature.Collections of small fishing and farming communities are scattered throughout the region, and it is not uncommon to see tiny villages that appear to have put a halt to technology and growth a hundred years ago.This is what makes Kona so unique and enjoyable; the fact that along with the tourist attractions, restaurants, and great beaches, there exists a natural, uninterrupted lifestyle that the native Hawaiians are still able to enjoy.The hubbub of city life has not reached many of the people who call Kona home, and this should be applauded, appreciated, and respected by all tourists.Kona is a terrific place for water sports and for seeing many diverse landscapes. Ranging from black coastal desert to lush, fertile plantations, Kona has a wide variety of geography that is ideal for exploration.Enchanting scents of coffee, exotic fruits, and gorgeous flowers fill the air, making your trip to Kona seem more and more like an exercise in taking in all the beauty the coast has to offer.The actual word Kona means leeward side and you know what that means a bright, sun-filled sky practically every day of the year.
