: Hi Jaco, : You need to know the Island of Hawaii is referred to as "the Big Island". This will help you immensely. : Kona side is hot, dry, very touristy. : Kohala Coast is hot, dry, pretty touristy, nice beaches, big luxury hotels. : Waimea is cool, sometimes rainy, old country area - plenty of b and bs I think. : Kau is hot, dry, and secluded. : Puna is rainy and cool some places - hot and somewhat rainy other ... look into Kapoho for hot - look into Volcano for cool. : Hilo is warm and rainy - great local town. : Honokaa is very small-town, and the gateway to Waipio. : : With your desire to hangglide and scuba dive - you will probably want to be near Kailua-Kona, as that is where the action is. I would suggest : South Kona for you - somewhere around Kealakekua and Captain Cook. : Start looking around here: : <a href="http://www.andhawaii.com/hawaii/big-island/index.html">http://www.andhawaii.com/hawaii/big-island/index.html</a> : <a href="http://www.keala.com/">http://www.keala.com/</a> : <a href="http://www.luckyfarm.com/">http://www.luckyfarm.com/</a> : <a href="http://www.coffeetimes.com/skona.htm">http://www.coffeetimes.com/skona.htm</a> : <a href="http://www.blackbamboohawaii.com/southkona.html">http://www.blackbamboohawaii.com/southkona.html</a> : Good luck, come on back if you have any specific questions!
