| The
Big Island of Hawaii is the
biggest island of the Hawaiian
Islands. It is also the
youngest island among the
group. The island offers
various natural habitats and
sceneries, with pristine waters, lush green rain
forests, lava deserts, and
active volcanoes. The
island continues to grow in size
as the molten lava from the
Kilauea Volcano streams into the
ocean 4,000 feet below.
The Big Island also offers a
rich exhibition of native
Hawaiian artifacts and ritual
places built by the ancient
residents. The island is
divided into two halves; the
Kona Coast and the Hilo
Coast. The Kona Coast has 14 known climate zones,
from desert lavascapes to tropical rain forests to beaches to snow on the peaks of 13,000 foot volcanoes.
Hilo, on the wet side, is the
island's major city while Kona on the dry side is the most popular destination. Total area is 4,038 sq. miles - 93 miles long and 76 miles wide with 266 miles of coastline. |
