Day 8: Visit beaches on South Kona Coast

 March 17

Today we stayed in the Kona area.

We started the morning by relaxing/snorkeling at Pae'a (2-step beach) in Honaunau Bay.

There were lots of signs telling you where to get into the water - and a single line.

We then stopped at a bee farm to take a tour and taste honey, but it was really busy so we left.

We also spotted this mural painted on a hillside.

We decided to have lunch at Kona Brewing.

We started with tuna tartare and I ordered a Big Wave, while Steve tried multiple samples of the beer.

Steve had the seered ahi tuna.

I had the fish tacos on ube tortillas.

We made a quick stop at Costco to fill the car with gas, pick up dinner and tomorrow's lunch for the plane, then dropped it off at the condo.

We then drove to Keauhou Bay Beach in the late afternoon for more beach time/snorkeling.

We spent the evening packing for our flight early tomorrow morning.

And ate Costco sushi for dinner.
