Ahhh, the Big Island. Home of the most active volcano in the world and Mauna Kea and Mauna Loa and big stretches of open land and rainy Hilo and wild Puna. What a place! The Big Island is my home and my favorite island — but it’s not always so friendly to visitors! It’s really new, so the beaches are few and far between, but some are black and one is green! A rare jewel, the Big Island. Come vacation!
