As a resident of the Big Island, this was a really good video! Don't forget to check out the tiny towns in between the big ones -- lots of rich history and small businesses to check out. Reminder to all visitors and potential visitors: don't touch the wildlife here. Alot of them are endangered and carry felony charges.

Thanks for the comment, that means a lot to us. Honoka'a, Kapaau, Naalehu, and so many more great towns around the islands.

On the off chance I win the lottery, the Big Island is the first place to look for me. I love the Big Island!

we are supposed to be in Kaua'i right now but had to delay the trip. We are heading over soon! We love Kauai for the outdoor activities and laid-back hotels.

Nice quick video. Gives enough information so others can do more research on their interests. One advantage of vacation rentals is that you can cook your own meals, saving not only $ but time as well. Fortunate to have visited 2x (from CA), Hilo side. Yes, count on it raining everyday, just carry a waterproof windbreaker.

We loved the big island! We stayed in Kona for our honeymoon 16 yrs ago at Kona Village Resort, which sadly got destroyed by a huge storm a number of years ago. Such a fun place with so many options to do and see! Thanks for sharing 😁

Great video!! Planning to head there in December because on our way to Oahu a couple of weeks back we had a 12 hour flight delay, so they gave us credits for future flights within one year. Probably going to visit the Big Island in december!! Also a question, is there more rainfall in the winter than in the summer? Thank you for the helpful info!!

Good choice for the Big Island in December. That is the Big Island's most popular time for visitors. There is more rainfall in December. January and February are usually the wettest time of year. Check out this video for weather info and our website: kzread.info/dash/bejne/lYJ4qrCoccTJn8Y.html

Your videos are my go-to source to plan our Nov 2022 trip. Seriously considering 2-3 nights glamping in Pahoa for the experience before a week in sunny Maui. We’re in a different stage of life than you (emptynesters) and would love the quiet solitude. Found a deal on an interesting “cabin,” but am wary, bc I don’t see your mention of that town anywhere. Are we off track? TYIA

There is a restaurant, the round thing near the pool, but that is it. The hotel overlooks the beach

we are planning to stay for 8 days in the Big island. would you recommend staying 4 days to Kona then 4 days to Hilo?! or just stay on one side of the island then just drive around from one side to the other?!

@TheHawaiiVacationGuide

Consider one or two nights on the Hilo side. With Kilauea erupting right now, a day at the park is good and another day for the sights on the Hamakua Coast and Hilo. If you have more on your list, then add another day! Have a great trip! We have our legendary Big Island itinerary if you need more planning info: thehawaiivacationguide.com/bigisland/

Just wanted to remind everyone that plans to visit Hawaii, don't touch or harass the marine animals. So many tourist are putting up social media videos of them harassing the animals that Hawaii has increased the fine to $50,000! And we will hunt them down in whatever state or country they are from and press charges. If they don't pay the fines then a warrant will be issued and they can be arrested if they EVER return to the islands. Also, we love the wild marine animals like our own ohana, and can get very aggressive in protecting them. We see, we watch, we act. Please show ALOHA to all our family.
