Try the wine tasting and add a cheeseplate to it!
They also have a tea sampler!
After the wine tasting, order a cup of Rusty’s coffee. Super smooth and you do not need to add sugar or cream. This Ka’u coffee is the best!

It’s a long drive from Volcano, HI but it is worth it!
You can rent beach umbrellas and beach chairs on site.
Bring a cooler because there is not much shade you can find there. During whale season ( Jan- March), you can see the whales breeching from the shore.

Beautiful drive going up up up the Visitor’s center. Climb that little hill when you reach the visitor’s parking lot. Wait for sunset/sunrise. Omg, the view is jaw dropping.
It can get really cold and windy up there so make sure you bring proper clothes and shoes. Bring a flashlight if you plan to go there when it is dark.
There are also stargazing sessions there that I have not personally tried because I will never understand those lol. I only know shooting stars and that’s about it!
You need a 4x4 to drive to the summit.
I know someone who hiked and looked for the green lake up there. I think it’s crazy because the air is so thin up there. But if you are one of those who wants to find it, be my guest!😁

Most southernpoint tip of USA.
Just enjoy the scenery. Do not jump off that cliff to swim. It is super dangerous and I know people who broke their backs and injured themselves doing that. Remember, I am a nurse! So take that advice.

If you are up to it, you can hike down to the beach. It’s a difficult hike for some people. Or just enjoy the view from the parking lot! Nice bike ride, too if you have bikes!😊

Hotels in Kona
There are many hotels you can stay in Kona. But this is a personal favorite because it’s right in Ali’i Drive where you can walk and try other restaurants. I don’t feel like being trapped in a resort. Plus they don’t charge resort fees! 😊
