Day 18: Kona Coast


We headed up towards Hamakua coast. The areas was onced filled with sugar cane, now it is filled with eucalyptus trees which would be harvested. Along the route, you were able to see the dramatic change in vegetation due to the rainshadow.

Eventually we stopped at the Hapuna State Beach. This was a chance to recharge and enjoy the 85 degree water. Most of us spent time wave surfing or buring people in the sand. Hapuna Beach was derived from broken rocks and shells.  Having a day to just relax was nice. Doc took his siesta and everyone got a chance to soak up some sun.
