Kona (Hawaii) City Guide

The Kona coast is one of Hawaii's top destinations for adventure seekers. The ruggedly and beautiful coastline boasts outdoor recreation as varied as snorkeling and scuba, surfing and windsurfing, biking, rock climbing, and even skiing, on Hawaii's only snowy peak, Mauna Kea. For those truly inspired to push the limits of strength and endurance, the city of Kailua-Kona serves as host every year to the original Ironman Triathlon. Those looking for a little rest, relaxation, and even pampering to go with their adventure will find much to enjoy in Kona as well. The village of Holualoa offers chic art galleries, boutiques and unique brews of Kona coffee. The landscape is dotted with historical landmarks that testify to Hawaii's colorful past - ancient Hawaiian sacred spots, early European churches and even King Kamehameha's vacation home and palace. The landscape offers astonishing beauty and variety, including tropical jungles, white and black sand beaches, deserts, active volcanoes and snowy peaks, all within several dozen miles of each other.
