The Big Island of Hawaii is spectacular. From its snow-capped peaks to its black and white sand beaches the island is really a study in contrasts. Rocky deserts and lushes rain forests. Peaceful bays and rolling pasture land. Luxurious orchids and waterfalls on the windward side, and areas on the western slopes where the world famous Kona coffee is grown. A visit to the Big Island will fill you with wonder and awe as you experience this place of beauty, history, and extremes.
