4.5Battleship Missouri Memorial(8.285 reviews) - Great visit to the "Mighty Mo" Friday: 8:00 AM - 4:00 PM Spent 1-2 hours Historic Sites • Points of Interest & Landmarks • Ships
Since opening in January 1999, the Battleship Missouri Memorial has attracted more than 9-million visitors from around the world with a fascinating tour experience showcasing the USS Missouri’s unique place in history. Located a mere ship’s length from the USS Arizona Memorial, the Mighty Mo completes a historical visitor experience that begins with the “day of infamy” and sinking of the USS Arizona in Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, and ends with Japan’s formal surrender aboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo Bay on September 2, 1945. The USS Missouri had an astounding career over five decades and three wars – World War II, the Korean War, and Desert Storm – after which it was decommissioned and donated to the USS Missouri Memorial Association, Inc., a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. The Association operates the Battleship Missouri Memorial as a historic attraction and oversees her care and preservation with the support of visitors, memberships, grants, and donations.See more..
We took Saddle road driving from Kona to Hilo. It is a nice easy drive. It was pretty at sunset with the sky changing colors around the volcanos. We did drive past the Mauna Kea entrance and the protest was going on at the time so we saw all the tents and people camped out. It is a pretty dark road at night tho, tho only light was the reflectors on the roads. See more..

4.5Kalaupapa Overlook(158 reviews) - A view one never tires of Spent < 1 hour Points of Interest & Landmarks
I live 2 miles from this overlook and never tire of walking up to it to see it. It is different every time depending on the weather, the light, the time of day. When you realize how isolated this peninsula is from the rest of the world, it also hits home as to what people had to endure when banished to this place.See more..
I sent two of my hand decorated coconuts to Pennsylvania on a Friday & they arrived the following Monday! Amazing! It was a fun unique thing to send & Im glad I did. I chose medium coconuts from the bin, coconuts are free, my postage was $20.00 for each coconut.Not too bad for a special one of a kind souvenir. You find your not as good of an artist once you start drawing on your coconut. The mail lady behind the counter was very nice! I laughed so hard when my daughter in law let me know it arrived. She said her postman said “ that’s the first time I ever delivered a coconut.” A good assortment of pens in all colors are provided for you. Definitely a lot of fun❤️See more..
5.0Sweetheart Rock(31 reviews) - Fabulous walk with variety Points of Interest & Landmarks
Lanai isn't big on signs, so if you don't know about this, PLEASE check it out, but don't look for the sign. From Hulopo'e Beach, walk along the left side. Please take some time to explore the wonderful tide pools! From the place where the stairs go down to the tide pools, there's a little path to the left that will take you over to a beautiful arch rock and Sweetheart rock (which we've always called Chocolate Cake rock.) This is a VERY short hike that could be done in flip-flops. Bring your camera. You will see tide pools and beautiful water and rocks, a little beach that's difficult to get to ... and of course, the great rock. NOTE: there are no rails, and some very steep cliffs. If you have children, do not let go of their hands! :-)See more..

4.0Kalokoeli Fishpond(7 reviews) - Largest Fish Pond Rock Wall Points of Interest & Landmarks
We accessed this trail from the Kaloko-Honokohau National Historic Park. It can also be reached from Hawaii Volcanos, Pu’uhonua o Honaunaum Parks and the Pu’ukohola Heiau Historic Site. Largest fish pond wall in the state of Hawaii, this was King Kamehameha I favorite pond. The coastal trail is175-miles long and runs along the west and south shores of the Big Island but is not a continuous one. Hence, the access points mentioned above. The fishpond is accessible by a rough, unpaved road north of the Visitors Center of Kaloko-Honokohau National Park. The bumpy road passes by ancient rock walls and foundations entroute to the Kaloko Fishpond and Kaloko Kuapa. A kuapa is a rock wall fishpond. These were constructed using interlocking large and small rocks. The only part open to the public is the stonewall next to the parking lot. There are picnic tables if you choose to sit and enjoy the view or have a picnic lunch.See more..
4.5Kukui Point Petroglyphs(6 reviews) - Wonderful Hawaiian petroglyph site! Spent 1-2 hours Points of Interest & Landmarks • Mysterious Sites
On the way to Shipwreck Beach, about 200 yards from the last Jeep Turnaround. A really great site with many cool old Hawaiian petroglyphs. Just like those in the Four Corners states, these really bring a picture of what their lives were like. Really worth the short hike but wear sturdy shoes due to thorns and lava rock. Follow the cairns to the site.See more..
The stop is not that long, but the views are simply amazing especially in the afternoon. The view up and down the coast is worth the stop along with the photo opportunities.See more..
