About this item

The "big" island that the island chain is named for, Hawaii. It is more than twice the size of all the other Hawaiian islands put together, and has the two tallest mountains (volcanoes) of any. And this is the guidebook to explore it with: it covers the length and breadth of the island, from the sun-drenched Kona and Kohala coasts on the west side of the island to Hilo and the breathtaking Hamakua Coast on the other side, from the Kawaihae Coast and the Pololu Valley at the northern tip to the lava flows in the stark landscape of Kau farther south. The author explored this island mile by mile, and included it all in this book: Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Saddle Road that leads to the 13,796-foot summit of Mauna Kea, the sacred Pu'uhonau O Honaunau National Historical Park, Mauna Loa, Hapuna Beach, Waipio Valley, myriad waterfalls and swimming holes, macadamia plantations, orchid and anthurium gardens. This is not just a guidebook; it is THE guidebook to the "Big Island." Comes complete with 12 maps, Hawaiian glossary, features on Hawaiian flowers, fish, seashells and leis, and over 500 practical information listings for accommodations, restaurants, events, tours, beaches, campgrounds, hiking trails, water sports, golf courses, etc. Also hundreds of web addresses.
