Kikaua Beach, The Special Secret Beach On The Big Island
Kikaua Beach, it’s not on any map, and most people don’t know about this secret beach on The Big Island. Black lava, white coral, and aquamarine waters combine in a dazzling array of contrast and color here. After spending the morning at the beautiful but rough and crowded Kua Bay, I was so happy to find this tranquil cove.

Big Island Beaches: Tips For Kua Bay, Hawaii
If you’re looking to explore Big Island beaches near Kona in Hawaii, Kua Bay is definitely beautiful.

Puuhonua O Honaunau-Be Forgiven At The City Of Refuge On The Big Island
In Hawaii, on the Big Island just south of Kona is the City of Refuge, known as Puuhonua O Honaunau.

Today, it’s a place where people go to ponder what needs to be released in their lives.

Also, this sacred site is…

This Kauai Bike Path Will Show You Some Of The Best Views In Hawaii
One of things that I loved the most about Kauai, my favorite island in Hawaii, is that there is so much more to do than just lie on the beach all day. Don’t get me wrong, I love relaxing on the beach, but I also love to be active. Biking is one of my favorite activities, so when I learned I could rent a bike to see the east side of the island by following the Kauai bike path in Kapaa, I was all about checking it out. I rented my bike from Coconut Coasters Bike Rental which had a great choice of different styles to rent. If you leave…
