Lifestyle:
South Kona is just a short drive from the bustling city life of Kailua Kona, yet its character is very
different. Here you’ll enjoy country living in the land of Kings where Captain Cook met his untimely end,
and where the illustrious Kona coffee is grown and shipped to connoisseurs around the world.
South Kona has good public schools with an easy commute to the private and charter schools of Kalilua
Kona. The Keei Cafe appeals to both residents and visitors with
its “mountain to sea” menu. For those who don’t want to drive
into Kailua Kona, there’s convenient shopping at the Kealakekua
Ranch Shopping Center, which includes a Choicemart grocery
store, a deli, a garden center, a hardware store and a hair saloon. The
Kona Community Hospital in Kealakekua serves the West Hawaii
community along with many private practices.
Activities:
Water sports are legendary in South Kona, the home of the Kealakekua Bay Marine Sanctuary and
Ho’okena State Beach Park. The swimming and snorkeling is fantastic and the area is known for teaming
pods of friendly dolphins and abundant marine life. Did we mention that the bays and coves dotting
shoreline are gorgeous too? And if you don’t want to look at fish, you can also catch them - deep sea
fishing is a favorite South Kona pastime. Along the coastline and throughout South Kona you’ll find
coffee plantations, excellent hiking, and even a few ranches that offer horseback trail rides.
Heritage:
South Kona is a land of polynesian Kings and Queens whose word was law and who were laid to rest in
secret caves along the coastline. For those who broke the sacred laws the only chance of survival
was reaching Pu’uhonua O Honaunau, the Place of Refuge, which is now a National Park honoring
Hawaiian culture and heritage. Not far from the Place of Refuge is the Honaunau Rodeo Arena, home
for almost 50 years to one of the largest rodeos on the Big Island - the “Kona Stampede”.
Whether it’s the rhythms of coastal life, the small town feel of old Hawaii, or the misty mountains of
coffee country, South Kona has a lot to offer.
