Hōnaunau (also spelled Honaunau) is an unincorporated community on the island of Hawaii in Hawaii County, Hawaii, United States. It lies just off Hawaii Belt Road on the opposite side of the island from Hilo, the county seat of Hawaii County. Its elevation is 52 feet (16 m). Because the community has borne multiple names, the Board on Geographic Names officially designated it "Honaunau" in 1914 and 1954 before changing to the current spelling in 2000. Although it is unincorporated, it has a post office, with the ZIP code 96726.

This 182-acre park contains the Puuhonua, a sacred place of refuge, as well as other temples and coastal sites.

Also called Place of Refuge this extraordinary historical sight offers a fascinating journey through Hawaiian history. Within the extensive grounds of the park are a Great Wall over 1000 feet long and 10 feet high built of lava rock in the 1500's, reconstructed thatched roof Hawaiian houses, temples and wooden carvings of gods protecting the Hale-o-Keawe mausoleum.

Turtles! Lots and lots and lots of fish and we saw an eel too! The coral is varied and lots of it, the water was calm and there was lots to explore. We found a super easy spot to enter the water, and this is now our favorite snorkeling spot on the Big Island!

Bay View Farm offers 30 minute guided tours which take the visitor through the plantation, the production facility, the drying and weighing area and the roasting facility. The local guides, now the third generation, all grew up working on the farm. Free tasting of the coffee takes place at the beautiful visitors’ center and gift store. Guest are advised to wear comfortable flat shoes and that since the farm is elevated above sea level, it can be a little cool in the afternoon and a light sweater or similar may be a good idea. Bathrooms: Pristine bathrooms with wheelchair accessible toilets. Covered Pavilion may be leased hourly for up to 30 guests to enjoy in-house or outside catering. Bay View Farm owes its exclusive tastes to hard work, persistency and the never ending desire to produce the most powerful yet pleasant coffee. The farm produces four principal flavors of Light, Medium, Dark and Decaffeinated 100% Kona coffees, ground or whole bean.
The Big Island always rewards rambling exploration and Bay View Farm was the best example of this on our latest trip. We were on our way to the Painted Church and stopped off here because we weren't in a hurry and it wound up being the sleeper highlight of our trip as we spent an hour talking story and learning more about coffee, macadamia nuts, and fruit than we ever thought possible. The views are legendary, the coffee and snacks are great, but the feeling of Aloha will leave a lasting impression for our group of 6. Be sure to get your photo taken with Honey, the guard dawg.

We were greeted by a full rainbow and then to follow a beautiful sunset. There is an area where you can swim amongst the water. There is a nice little area to walk around the point but be careful it can be slippery due to the loose rocks. There is beautiful coral to see. I would recommend this to see the sunset.
We offer a one of a kind fishing adventure for those looking to go kayak fishing in Hawaii. Accompanied by our expert fishmaster Rob Wong Yuen, enjoy a full day of fun, sun, and the beautiful blue waters off the "Big Island".
We are a unique, new kayaking company which explores five miles on an isolated majestic coastline on the Big Island. We only take four customers to insure the highest quality of service. The owner moved to Hawaii in 1985 working on sailing and diving charters. She worked as a commercial crabber in Alaska, circumnavigated the world, raced outrigger canoes, and relishes in solo long distance trips.
