See lava flow at Volcanoes National Park located on the other side of the island. There are inside historical buildings with volcano information throughout the park. It's cold there so wear a jacket and tends to be rainy as well which brings BEAUTIFUL RAINBOWS!

A great place to snorkel in the deep blue pacific ocean. This is for more advanced swimmers since the water is very deep. A more kid friendly place to snorkel close by is a rocky beach on Ali'i Drive at mile marker 5. They have snorkel equipment at this small beach that you'll be sure to see huge Sea Turtles basking in the Sun on the rocks. The water here is not wavey, great for kids or beginners, and you won't beleive all the beautiful fish you can see by just walking into the ocean.
