The Island of Hawaii Holidays

Gin clear waters, jet black beaches, somersaulting manta rays and jungle journeys; Hawaii Island hums with lava filled volcanoes and electrifying outdoor adventure.

The Island of Hawaii, also known as the Big Island, is the largest of Hawaii's paradisiacal archipelago and, topographically, the most diverse. Its lava sculpted landscape boasts jet black beaches, emerald forests and active volcanoes. Its coastlines are lapped by the Pacific, and spinner dolphins, sea turtles and tiger sharks call these waters home. On Papakolea beach you’ll find mesmerising crystal green sands and off the Kona Coast, come winter, you’ll see humpback whales migrating from Alaska. Just outside of Hilo sits an astonishing feat of nature, the 300,000 acre-plus Volcanoes National Park, where you can hike through desert and rainforest and take a spectacular walk around the Kilauea Iki crater rim. Breeze into the Island of Hawaii if you’re looking for fierce natural wonders, dramatic underwater architecture and dark sky nights so clear you can often spot the Milky Way.
