This is a slice of heaven! I’ve never experienced anything like the Big Island, and this is a similarly unexpected GEM in the midst of nature’s best!
It’s a bit off the beaten path, but also close to some very cool stuff. The newest beach in the ?world? Is just down the road (after you get to drive over “3 Fingers of Lava”. The gallery/“corner store”/bar/amazing gift shop/art store is at the other far end of the road and I hear Wednesday 5-10 pm is WHERE ITS AT!
The people in “town” were friendly and real and there was aloha all around.
For an amazing and unique experience, stay here and, even if you are exploring other parts of the island, spend some time local. Aloha!
