Kona Travel Tips
• While public transport in Hawaii is great, it’s best to rent a car when traveling to Kona, as the Big Island really is big and having your own set of wheels is vital to seeing the best of the Big Island.
• Take frequent stops when driving around the Big Island to get some fresh air—and also to acclimate to the changes in altitude, which are common when traversing Hawaii Island.
• Kailua Kona is one of the best places on the Big Island to shop and explore, so be sure to spend some time in this coastal town.
• If you’re looking for sandy, postcard-perfect beaches, the Kona area of the island will have more options for you to choose from, compared to Hilo where beaches can be a bit more rocky in comparison.
• Flights are seriously short between Maui and Kailua-Kona, so don’t think you need to prep movies, lunch and more for the fairly brief journey between the two locations.
