Gonna Love It with Lovette, LLC Lifestyle: North Hilo is the southernmost extension of the Hamakua coastline as it rolls down Highway 19. North Hilo is a rural district of waterfalls, agriculture, horticulture, and some tourism activities. For many, being a resident of North Hilo allows them to experience the slow pace of old Hawaii while having an easy commute to Hilo, the second largest city in the Hawaiian Islands and the county seat of the Big Island. Activities: There are popular areas to surf along the coastline of North Hilo but caution should be taken as this is the windward side of the island and the seas can be challenging at times. Kolekole Beach Park sits along a stream that opens to the ocean and is a hot spot for surfing and body-boarding. Close to the small plantation town of Honomu is Akaka Falls State Park, a beautiful and free attraction with a half-mile walking path through stunning rain forests leading up to the 420 ft. Akaka Falls. Hawaii Tropical Botanical Gardens is a showcase for the flora of North Hilo and its self-guided trails feature over 2000 species of flowers and tropical plants. Heritage: Like the Hamakua coast and Hilo, the flavor of old Hawaii remains in the North Hilo district. Ample rainfall and lots of sunshine has made North Hilo an agricultural powerhouse for hundreds of years and home to a world-wide tropical plant and flower industry. Wave after wave of immigrants who came in support of the sugar industry left behind a very multi-cultural population. Though Hilo and North Hilo get about half the tourist traffic that Kailua Kona receives, many people prefer the slower pace of east side to that of metropolitan Kona. Click on District for more info
