2 Hours Private Hiking to Jungle Tide Pools
3
This is the best-kept secret on Big Island. Only locals know about these tide pools. The surrounding scenery is reminiscent of Big Sur: stunning views, steep cliffs, vibrant vegetation - something straight out of a movie. The adjacent jungle is an ancient Mango grove. Hawaiians consider this area of the island sacred. You are totally immersed in nature. You will be blown away before we even begin the hike.
The tide pools are magical. The water is pristine and healing. You can climb on the perimeter rocks to get an unparalleled view of the coastline. Only feet away, massive waves strike the cliffs and send water flying into the air. The area is a natural playground.
There is a 99% chance that nobody else will be there and we'll have the tide pools all to ourself.
I am the perfect companion. Hanging out with me will give you a good sense for the local culture. Also, the trail is not always visible. You need me.
