Kona · Two districts

The Kona district divides into two very different coasts.

Kona is not one place. The district’s northern half is the historic town of Kailua-Kona and a dry, sunny coast; the southern half is coffee country climbing the slopes of Hualālai and Mauna Loa with a quieter, higher upcountry character. Choose the guide that matches how you plan to live.
