Sunset at Kawaihae Harbor

From Waimea, you can travel west on Highway 19 back to the coast. This is near where your trip began.

If the day is coming to an end, be sure to stop back at Kawaihae Harbor. You'll often find outrigger canoe clubs practicing beyond the harbor at sunset as you can see in our photo.

A daytrip to the beautiful and historic Kohala Region is certainly worth consideration on your next trip to Hawaii's Big Island.
