Hilo is located on the lush, windward side of the Big Island, and it is the starting point for excursions to Kilauea Volcano. Drive around the 11-mile rim of the crater or tour the dramatic lava formations of Volcanoes National Park. View breathtaking Akaka Falls, where the water drops more than 400 feet into a pool below, or visit the Hawaii Tropical Botanical Gardens. Or, check out the views from the summit of 13,796-foot Mount Mauna Kea, the highest peak in Hawaii.
