SCUBA dive in the crystal clear waters along the Kona Coast and discover abundant underwater lava-rock formations that are home to myriad of tropical fish.

KAYAK along the coast and peek in to dark lava-tube caves that dot the coastline.

HELICOPTER is a wonderful way to discover the Big Island. Keauhou's own heli-pad makes this an easy option for volcano or waterfall sightseeing.

HORSEBACK RIDES are offered nearby through some of the rich mauka (mountains) of South Kona.

KONA COFFEE FARM TOURS are self-guided and an exceptional way for independent travelers to take a look back in time to when Kona Coffee was harvested with the help of the Kona Nightingales (Mules).  Meet the growers of this world-famous coffee and return with freshly roasted Kona Coffee beans, a perfect gift for everyone on your list.

 GOLF is king here on the island that has been declared the "Golf Capital of Hawaii." The nearby Kona Country Club boasts 36 holes of play and offers preferred guests rates for Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort & Spa guests.

HAWAII VOLCANOES NATIONAL PARK is the most popular visitor destination in the state of Hawaii. Home to the most active volcano in the world (Kilauea), a trip to the Park is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to witness the power of Mother Nature.

HIKING is popular among residents and visitors alike with trails for the novice or experienced hiker found throughout the island. Activity companies offer guided hikes and tours for every level of hiker.

DEEP SEA FISHING from the Kona Coast is unequalled. "Granders" (marlin of 1,000 pounds or more) are not an uncommon occurance and are often caught within site of the shoreline!

PU'UHONUA O HONAUNAU is the ancient City of Refuge. This national park is a wonderful way to learn about the rich history and culture of Hawaii.
