Hike down to Pololu Valley
An easy hike on the Big Island! At the bottom of Pololu Valley is a black sand beach and valley. For picture opportunities, the best photos come from half-way down the hike and is easily accessible.
Down at Pololu Valley
The spectacular views of the valley and the steep cliffs that end in the ocean are worth a trip on their own, but the real thing to do here is hiking to the black sand beach at the valley floor! There also are some pretty cool things to do close to Pololu valley to make your visit into a small road trip. From Pololu valley on these valleys stretch towards the south-east in an impressive display that you can partly see from the Pololu lookout point. You can see Pololū Valley, Honokāne Nui, Honokāne Iki, Honokeʻa, Honopue, Waimanu Valley and Waipiʻo Valley (we'll come back to this valley later).
Tour past farmers' markets and Hawi
No lack of cute little towns in the north of Big Island. Hop by Hawi and go on a search for the nicest farmer's market. Some good ones are the Hilo Farmers Market, Market at the Mill, Keaau Village Farmers Market, Maku’u Farmers Market.
