10 days in Hawaii Itinerary

Thanks to its favorable location near a mountain range blocking the northeasterly trade winds, Kailua-Kona gets little rainfall, allowing adventure seekers and nature lovers a chance to enjoy over 300 days of sunshine each year.

Start off your visit on the 17th (Sun): steep yourself in history at Pu'uhonua O Honaunau National Historical Park, then explore the activities along Kealakekua Bay, and then get close to the beloved marine mammals with a swim-with-the-dolphins experience. Get ready for a full day of sightseeing on the next day: kick back and relax at Hapuna Beach State Recreation Area, then steep yourself in history at Puukohola National Historic Park, and then steep yourself in history at Puako Petroglyph Archaeological Preserve.
