Thank you for all the great suggestions as my mother and I are traveling here very soon and we wanted some pointers for those picture perfect beaches you see in Hawaiian photos lol but we are most excited to explore the volcanoe as well for our very first time in Hawaii ever! 🤍
For taking me along with you and seeing this beautiful beautiful island of yours, everything was so pretty here. Hugs and kisses from grandma Sandy and Debbie. Thanks for a wonderful journey today and seeing so many beautiful beaches add mountains.
WOW! 😮 absolutely beautiful. I’m travelling here in just over 2 weeks. I’ve only ever been to Maui❤ and Oahu. Maui is very special to me, but with everything going on I wanted to respect the island and not travel there at this time. So I am excited to see what the big island is like. And it looks amazing!
We love Maui as well and are also heartbroken by the tragedy. Just pray for everyone there. Big Island has become our favorite island. It is amazing and we hope you have a great time there!
That was interesting because some of the beaches were unique, not usually listed as "the best". In that respect I absolutely loved Honomalino beach because nobody else was there! That beach requires less than 1 mile hike. But for us the best beach for snorkeling on Big Island was Two-step (taking into account that Captain Cook is not easily accessible).
We haven't been to Honomalino Beach but it's now on our list for next time, thanks for sharing!! We also agree Two-Step is the best snorkeling on the Big Island!!
The never went to Mauna Kea resort beach it seems. It is just up the road from Hapuna Beach. Much better than Hapuna. They did not hike to Makawena beach either. Not to far from Kua beach but it is a hike. 👍
Make sure to bring slippahs if the sun is out at Ho’Okena or Honomalino Beaches. The salt and pepper (gray) sand will quickly warm up the bottom of your feet.
Hi guys, loved your video! As we are planning to go Hawaii in March can you please let me know if Hapuna beach is good for swimming/ snorkling? Are waters over there rather calm meaning not big crushing waves that would make swimming impossible …?
It is a great beach for swimming and just floating, not crushing waves at all. There is some snorkeling you can do off to the sides of the beach and a small area in the middle of the beach. Good Luck!
Kua Bay is my #1 also, simply beautiful water and sand, without having to walk far out over rocks. Only drawbacks are lack of shady trees and parking lot quickly filling up.
It's called "red road' not red dirt road. The original road had red cinder mixed with the asphalt giving it a red color. When the county repaved it, folks tried to get red dye added to the mix but it was too expensive.
@@pippilongstocking-qs7fm yeah. That’s not real. I’ve that road my entire childhood and my folks are still there, definitely called red road because of its former hue. There have been a few murders on that road, the most notorious being Dana Ireland.
First let me say I liked your video but you are not pronouncing the name of Ho'okena wrong it's not Hokena and it's far from a secret beach it's actually very ell known by everyone and a popular camping spot
Appreciate the comment....and the correct pronunciation of the Beach. We had just never discovered it on our own found it after some locals told us about it. Beautiful location!
Learn how to spell and pronounce the places before talking about them on social media. Especially if you have been coming to the island for as many times as you say you have. All out of due respect. Mahalo.
I live in glenwood and surprise.. I still haven't been to pohoiki since just before the 2018 eruption.. I still haven't seen the new beach yet.. Hawaiian time.. someday I will get down there.. I'm glad to see none of my favorite beaches made this list...
