KAUMANA CAVES STATE PARK
ROUND TRIP MILEAGE: 0.5 MILE
ELEVATION GAIN: 100'
This park offers a quick diversion into a lava tube. You can descend on a metal ladder into a skylight in a lava tube that was created by an 1881 flow from Mauna Loa. Unfortunately, you cannot explore this long tube because it immediately travels underneath private property. There are no admission fees, and the park features restrooms and picnic tables.
Trailhead: From Hilo, follow Hwy. 200, the Saddle Road, to the west. Locate Kaumana Caves State Park between the 4 and 5 mile markers (right after 4 mm). The parking area is on the south side of the road, but the park is on the north side.
Gear: Wear sturdy shoes. Bring a flashlight.

[GoPro] Exploring Kaumana Caves, Big Island, Hawaii
July 2019
Exploring a lava tube left behind from an 1881 flow from Mauna Loa.
Make sure to bring flashlights or better yet, headlamps (we brought both which allowed us to explore more). We saw many folks using the flashlight from their phones. While the light output was barely sufficient, I couldn't imagine if you ran out of battery or dropped the phone. It's pitch dark once you enter the cave.

Driving to Upolu Point, Northernmost Tip of Hawaii Island
5:39 p.m.: Continuing the tour of the North Kohala District of Hawaii Island, I’m now heading to Upolu Point, northernmost tip of the island, not far from the Hawaii 250/270 junction.
I turn right onto Upolu Airport Road and drive two miles to the tip on a one-lane road with cows grazing nearby. When I reach Upolu Airport, I start on a one-lane dirt track along the perimeter fence toward Upolu Point but it’s not passable, so I back up to the airport parking lot.

Hilo, Hawaii - Coconut Island (2018)
Coconut Island, or Mokuola is a small island in Hilo Bay, just offshore from Lili'uokalani Park and Gardens, in Hilo, off the island of Hawaii. It is a small park, and is connected to the main island via a footbridge. The island includes a large grassy field, picnic areas, restroom facilities, and a few tiny sandy beaches. A popular recreational activity is to jump off the tower into the waters of Hilo Bay.
The name Mokuola translates as healing island or island of life from the Hawaiian language. Moku meaning island and ola meaning life. It was the site of an ancient temple dedicated to healing. It is located off Banyan Drive.
Legend tells that anyone who was sick or feeling ill would be healed by swimming around Mokuola three times. In ancient times, Mokuola was a pu'uhonua (place of refuge), where natives or warriors could redeem themselves. Many native Hawaiians would also bury their children's piko (umbilical cords) under the flat rocks here, so the rats would not find them (piko are often considered sacred to Hawaiians, as they are the connection to their mothers and to their blood lines).
Hilo is the largest settlement and census-designated place (CDP) in Hawaii County, Hawaii, United States, which encompasses the Island of Hawaiʻi. The population was 43,263 at the 2010 census.
Hilo is the county seat of the County of Hawaiʻi and is in the District of South Hilo. The town overlooks Hilo Bay, at the base of two shield volcanoes, Mauna Loa, an active volcano, and Mauna Kea, a dormant volcano and the site of some of the world's most important ground-based astronomical observatories. Much of the city is at some risk from lava flows from Mauna Loa. The majority of human settlement in Hilo stretches from Hilo Bay to Waiākea-Uka, on the flanks of Mauna Loa.
Hilo is home to the University of Hawaiʻi at Hilo, ʻImiloa Astronomy Center of Hawaiʻi, as well as the Merrie Monarch Festival, a week-long celebration of ancient and modern hula that takes place annually after Easter. Hilo is also home to the Mauna Loa Macadamia Nut Corporation, one of the world's leading producers of macadamia nuts. The town is served by Hilo International Airport.
