The Big Island is one of the most unique and natural wonders of the world, home to hidden coves, special wildlife, and diverse culture.

It’s diversity of land and landscapes is like nowhere else in the world…Hawaii has 10 of the world’s 12 climates and fun activities for everyone.

If you are planning a vacation to Hawaii’s Big Island, and want to be inspired then be sure to check out these unique ideas:

  1. Manta Ray Night Dive

Scuba diving at night is a unique experience in itself.

But to see some of the most beautiful creatures on the Big Island, manta rays, swimming in the darkness with you is really something else entirely.

With wingspans of more than 10 feet and long javelin-like tails, the rays get up close and personal with divers and are often attracted to the dive light.

Experience swimming with the gentle giants on a Big Island Manta Ray Night Diving Tour.

  1. Merrie Monarch Festival

People fly from all over the world at the end of March to experience one of Hawaii’s most unique festivals, the Merrie Monarch Festival on the Big Island.

The best time for spectators is the impressive inaugural invitational event, which features hula dancing among other traditional chanting and dance performances.

  1. Lava

This may sound a little unlikely, but in fact it is not hard to see live lava on the Big Island.

The Hawaii Volcanoes National Park often has bubbling lava flow over and under the land in the park and into the sea – this evokes a large steam plume, which is sent over a mile high into the sky.

Three of the island’s volcanoes are active, so there’s a good chance you will get to see some eruptions, especially on Kilauea Volcano.

This is a must-see sight on the Big Island.

  1. Stargazing

Thanks to the island’s breathtaking volcano Mauna Kea, the most sacred location in Hawaii, some of the world’s best stargazing is possible on the Big Island.

When you journey to the top of this mountain, you can use telescopes on a clear night to see some of the most impressive collections of stars. If your timing is right, you can watch both the sun and moon rise.

Take the Mauna Kea Summit Hawaii Observatory Tour to visit the summit, gaze at the stars and learn more about this special location.

  1. Waipio Valley

This magical valley is legendary in Hawaii.

With waterfalls and a unique black-sand beach, the views in this spectacular natural park are out of this world.

You can hike, take a horse ride, or even a mule-drawn wagon through the valley. Adventurous travelers can kayak and head to the very top of the Muliwai Trail for the best views of the island.

Take a horse ride tour with Hawaii Discount ad learn why it is called the “Valley of the Kings.”

  1. Akaka Falls State Park

During the rainy season, the 420-ft high Akaka Falls is a violent and impressive display of gushing water over the park’s cliff edges.

The falls are easy to access and are close to the small town of Honomu, which is also worth spending an afternoon visiting.

  1. Zipline across the rainforest

If you are looking for something both exciting and unique then try a Big Island zipline across the rainforest canopy.

A fun new activity on the island, you can opt for an organized and professional tour in the northern part of the Big Island with Kohala Zipline.
