Winter is a wonderful time to visit Kona, offering mild temperatures and unique seasonal activities. For those staying at the OUTRIGGER Kona Resort & Spa, here are four top tips to ensure you make the most of your winter getaway.

1. Stargaze at Mauna Kea

One of the most incredible experiences you can have in Kona during the winter is stargazing at Mauna Kea. The clear winter skies and reduced light pollution create ideal conditions for viewing stars, planets, and distant galaxies. Book a stargazing tour with Blue Hawaiian Concierge to access telescopes and expert guides who will enhance your astronomical adventure.

2. Go Whale Watching

Winter is the peak season for whale watching in Kona, as humpback whales migrate to Hawaii’s warm waters to breed and give birth. Arrange a whale-watching tour to witness these majestic creatures up close. The tours often feature knowledgeable guides who provide fascinating insights into the whales’ behavior and biology. Seeing these magnificent mammals breach and play in the ocean is an unforgettable experience.

3. Explore Lava Tubes

Venture into the depths of Kona’s volcanic landscape by exploring lava tubes. These natural formations, created by flowing lava, offer a unique glimpse into the island’s geological history. Guided tours provide safe access to some of the most impressive lava tubes. Winter’s cooler temperatures make exploring these underground marvels more comfortable, adding to the adventure.
