5 Things to do for Honeymoon in Pahoa That You Shouldn't Miss
Tiny Pahoa is Hawaii's alternative to a glitzy, prepackaged vacation experience. A small, Victorian town with wooden boardwalks, Pahoa has been called the "downtown" of the Puna region of the Big Island. Travelers will find abundant natural beauty combined with a laid-back, artistic atmosphere.

This very unique snorkeling spot is now under two feet of lava. Another treasure lost but another will surely develop.

Big Island's newest black sand beach. Fine black sand, pounding surf, and thermal pools make this a very interesting beach indeed. The boat ramp is untouched from the lava flow, but is unusable for boat traffic. Lava has covered access roads, so plan for longer drives. As of October, there were no facilities. No fresh water = only port-a-potties at the beach.

The April to August 2018 eruption of Kilauea Volcano made vast changes both in lower Puna and at the summit. Halema’uma’u underwent a series of some 64 collapse events. As the magma receded below deep in the earth, the floor of what had been the lava lake fell much as an elevator descent, roughly 30 feet at a time. Each collapse rang the crater like an enormous bell, and with that the wall dropped boulders and the crater expanded and deepened. It is now as deep as the World Trade Center was tall. At the steam vents, rainwater that seeps through to the extremely hot rock that is beneath evaporates and emerges as clouds. Sometimes the clouds are dense, other times wisps. These vapors ring the rims of the caldera, both inner and outer. When you head to the right along the trail, windows emerge to offer views of the newly formed inner crater. Io, the Hawaiian hawk, and nene, the endangered state bird, are sometimes seen along this trail. Pueo, the owl, comes out at dusk. The sides of the crater are striated, showing evidence of past eruptions. To the left, you can follow the steamy trail to Volcano House for food and libations, then return to your car along the sulfur banks.
