  • Black Sand Beach at Waipio Valley - Waipio means curved water in the Hawaiian language.  It was the residence of many early Hawaiian kings - the large nioi tree was the location of the grass palace of the ancient kings.   A steep road leads down into the valley from a lookout point - one of the steepest roads in the world.  Several waterfalls pour into the valley to feed the river.  A foot trail called Muliwai Trail leads down a steep path to the Waimanu Valley.  The valley was the site of the final scene in the science fiction film Waterworld where the main characters finally found dry land.

  • Kalapana Black Sand Beach - The Big Island landscape is always changing, waves crashing into rocky shores and molten lava pouring into the ocean. The Kalapana Black Sand Beach is no exception, with sandy shores that are continuously shaped as crashing waters erode black lava rock. Across 1/4 mile of rocky terrain formed from a 20th century lava flow, you'll make your way across a path to remote Kaimu beach. At the Kalapana Lava Viewing Area, when the volcano is active, emissions are visible as billows of smoke rise above the ocean.
