ACTIVE VOLCANO: A short drive from the 8 Palms Oceanfront House. Many guests tell us they could spent a full week in the Volcano Park! Watch as the molten lava pours into the surf to create the newest land on earth. At night, view the glow of Kilauea's outbound lava flow. Hike through the Thurston Lava Tube. Visit the Jagger Museum.
ABOUT THIS AREA: The 8 Palms Oceanfront house is located just south of Hilo. Because Hilo is a community and not a resort, it has an old-fashion comfortable feel. Visitors can take off their shoes and relax like the local people. Hilo is the second largest city, ranked below Honolulu in population and size. Visitors will find familiar services: movie theaters, shopping malls, grocery stores, retail chain stores, restaurants, and nightlife within Hilo. Beaches and beach parks comprise the Bay. It is a great place to learn about old Hawaii and the environmental and cultural forces that shaped it.
WEATHER The temperature is mild throughout the year, averaging 72 degrees in winter months and 76 degrees in summer months. Most of the time, the temperature is a cool 74 degrees. The ocean breeze at 8 Palms in conjunction with the mild temperature make for a comfortable and enjoyable island stay.
BEACHES, SNORKELING, SURFING: Close to Hilo Bay Beaches. The Bay is comprised of an oceanfront area laced with fish ponds, islands, and lava rimmed black and white sand beaches. IF YOU WOULD PREFER TO BE AT A GREAT SWIMMING, SNORKELING, OR SURFING BEACH, THEN CALL US ABOUT OUR OTHER HILO VACATION RENTALS AT THE BEACHES (Beaches, Surfriders, and Lilikoi houses).
