Island bound! - Tiki Travel

RB Rum Balls Tiki Socialite Da Big Island Joined: Oct 04, 2004 Posts: 910	RB Rum Balls Posted posted on Sat, May 4, 2019 6:52 PM Aloha from the Big Island! On my side of the island (Kona), be sure to visit Pu'uhonua O Honaunau, commonly called "Place of Refuge." If you've seen pictures of big tikis looking out on the ocean, this is where they were taken. And if you're a snorkeler, right next door is "Two Step" where you take...two steps...off the lava shelf into the bay. In Kona Town, Don the Beachcomber's Mai Tai Bar at the Royal Kona Resort has nice decor and top-notch tiki drinks. A short walk from there is Kona Oceanfront Gallery, where a lot of Brad "Tiki Shark" Parker's art is displayed. Non tiki-wise, on this side of the island there's a lot of history, great snorkeling, deep sea fishing, Kona coffee plantations, and beautiful beaches on the Kohala Coast (north of Kona Town). If you have specific questions, send me a PM. I'd invite you to go outrigger paddling, but you won't be on shore in time. :wink:
