Verkehrsmittel
Because of the size of the Island a rental car is suggested
There are public buses and the Kona Trolley that stop in front of Kona Bali Kai. Check the internet for prices and routes. There are bicycles for rent. The nearest is at Magic Sands (White Sands) beach about a mile south.

Activities
Surfing: If you are interested in surfing lessons try Ohana Surf.
Snorkeling: My favorite spot is Two Step Beach. Bring cash to pay for parking.
Hiking: Try the Captain Cook hike to hike down to the water and see a monument to Captain Cook. There is also great snorkeling at the bottom of the trail. This is a hot, open trail so bring lots of water. Sometimes you even see wild pigs and goats.

Things to note
Island Time: Most locals are on island time, which is not always punctual or quick. We should all channel the island time mentality.
