The views of Kealekekua Bay are amazing and so is their luau bread. I always buy a loaf to take home, it is expensive but it is a big loaf and so delicious!

Parks & Nature
Hands down, the best snorkeling spot close to Kailua-Kona. A marine fish reserve, so lots of turtles and tame fish. Like snorkeling in an aquarium. Go in the morning for best sun as sometimes clouds roll in over Mauna Loa in the afternoons.
