Beautiful. Some guide books mention about swimming above the falls in several locations. Please don't do this! Many people drown each year here when they get caught in the current and get stuck in the underground lava tubes.

This lovely Japanese garden park was built over 100 years ago and sits elegantly on the edge of Hilo Bay. Walk along the footpaths, past the lanterns, and over the bridges to Coconut Island and get a different perspective of Hilo. An authentic Japanese Tea house is featured in the garden. The stately Banyan trees adorning and shading Banyan Drive were planted about 50 years ago by visiting celebrities. Look for their name plates at the base of each tree. Route 19 to Banyan Dive in Hilo.

Kaumana cave was formed during the 1881 eruption. The lava flow traveled over 25 miles, stopping just short of Hilo Bay. The cave is nearly 2 miles long and can provide hours of up-close-and-personal spelunking. Bring along a good flashlight and extra batteries. You can’t get lost but you can get hurt stumbling around in the dark. Hwy 200 (Saddle Road) 4 miles west of Hilo.

At the 9500' level on Mauna Kea, the Visitor Center is as far as you can go without a four wheel drive. The center is open on the weekends and Friday afternoon, and features stargazing on Friday and Saturday evenings. A small but interesting museum is housed in the Center with regular showings of an excellent video on the development of the mountaintop observatories. Call 961-2180 for information. Saddle Rd. Rt. 200 to John Burns Way. Have a full tank of gas and a jacket with you as it’s chilly up there
