Our time in Big Island was short and sweet. We were there for two nights and three days. I was surprised by the Big Island. It was quite different from Maui in that it was a lot more residential, and more low-key. I can't really put my finger on what it was, but it was probably my least favourite island of the three we visited (Maui, Big Island and Oahu).

These were a few highlights from our time on the Big Island:

1/ The beautiful pristine water view from Maui to the Big Island.

2/ The incredible Akaka Falls.

3/ Beautiful, tropical fruit! 

4/ Island turtle chilling on island time.

We also stayed in a lodge near the Volcano and we visited the Jaggar Museum at night to see the lava but it was difficult to get some nice photos with my little point and shoot. 

We also went kayaking to Kealakekua Bay which was INCREDIBLE. We were lucky enough to see some dolphins who put on a show for us! We didn't get much of it on film, but they do make an appearance in my video here.

On to Oahu we go...
