Parks & Nature
The volcano just before dawn is amazing - but the BEST volcano viewing by far is after 9pm. The most AMAZING dark sky with more stars than you'll see almost anywhere so close to a major city. A MUST see. Take a small flashlight - the 1 mile walk from Devastation Trail is easy.

Beach/Ocean access
No real 'beaches' on the Hilo side, but this local favorite is great for cooling off and floating around. Snorkeling is ok here too, with sea turtles using the lagoon for resting during low tide.
Recommend visiting at high tide for best swimming.
