Explore the great outdoors at Coconut Island Park and enjoy the volcano viewpoints during your trip to Hilo. Stroll along the beautiful beaches or discover the area's beautiful waterfalls.
Enjoy the volcano viewpoints and explore Rainbow Falls, a lovely green space in Hilo. Wander the area's picturesque gardens or simply enjoy one of its top-notch restaurants.
After visiting Keaukaha Beach Park, make a plan to see the other sights and activities in Hilo. Stroll along the area's seaside or simply savour its top-notch restaurants.
Waterfalls cascade through lush rainforest just minutes from city centre, where you'll find the best farmers market on the Big Island. Visit Rainbow Falls early morning when mist creates actual rainbows, then explore the Japanese gardens at Liliuokalani Park during low tide.
Hilo is an older town but it's friendly, has events such as farmers market (best one Saturday and Wednesday). Friday night they have a night market with food truck style food, live music. Fun HH at the Pineapple Grill. It's easy to meet people.

Hilo is a classic Hawaiian town with less over the top tourism compared to Kailua-Kona. It is on the "wet" side of the island, so expect more scattered showers, but also a lusher island vibe. Nice downtown, farmers market. Lots of free parking.

We loved the relatively easy access to Volcanoes National Park and also recommend Hawai'i Tropical Botanical Garden.

Go to the Volcano Park, , the Black sand beach down south and if you didn't mind a drive and a hike, the green sand beach.

Cool city. Hidden gem like much of the Big Island. Unfortunately, city of Hilo and the Big Island overall gets overlooked since people usually look at maui and Kauai first. But wish I had a few more days there!

A smallish town. Unfortunately because there isn't much around, going out to eat and shop is crowded and takes some time. But if you aren't in a rush, it does have a friendly laid back feeling.
