Hilo's spectacular waterfalls are on full display on this full-day adventure that not only takes in these sparkling cascades but also offers the opportunity for a swim or snorkel. Begin with a stop at Tex Drive-In, for an option to purchase their famous made-to-order malasadas, fried Portuguese sweet treats. Then, journey through the Valley of the Kings and descend into Laupahoehoe Point. Laupahoehoe village was located here until a tsunami in 1946 forced the town to move to higher ground. Continue to Akaka Falls State Park, where a paved walking path leads to Akaka Falls, a stunning 442-foot cascade that plunges down a sheer cliff. At historic Hilo Bay, enjoay a deli-style picnic lunch followed by time to swim or snorkel. Continue on to Rainbow Falls, featuring an 80-foot-tall twin waterfall. A photo stop at the iconic King Kamehameha statue and souvenir shopping completes this delightful day.
