Local Information: The travel time all the way around the Big Island of Hawaii takes a little more than five hours. As Hilo is the wettest city in the U.S. with ten feet or 120 inches of rain per year and the Volcano area can be a cold tropical rain forest at the 4,000 ft. elevation with a rain fall of 17+ feet or 200 inches per year. It is always wise to check the weather prior to exploring the wet or windward east side of the Big Island of Hawaii. Kona is the dry/sunny side of the island with 30 inches of rain per year and enjoys the soft Hawaiian breezes and best beaches. The Alii (Kings) selected Kona as the best place in all Hawai’i for their hale or residence. It is wise to anchor on the dry side of the Big Island for your visit to the Big Island of Hawaii and then select a sunny day to explore Hilo and the Volcanoes National Park.
