OMG - malasadas!! This one of the next best places after Leonard's in Waikiki (on Oahu island). They also have sandwiches and some hot plates in addition to their baked goods. You have to stop here if you go to South Point or Volcanoes National Park.

Green sand beach - not easy to access. Very windy and not a comfortable place to spend the day. The unique green sand is the only cool thing about it. If you do decide to go, then make sure you stop at the cliffs at South Point which is nearby.

Secluded, black sand beach located behind a private community in Waikoloa. Access is limited to a small number of vehicles at one time. The sand gets very hot during the day, so be sure to take water socks or wear your slippers (flip-flops). Not a lot of breaking waves, so it's relatively calm. About 35 minutes north of Kona town.
