About This Experience

Descend into one of the Big Island's most picturesque and remote valleys on this private guided hike to Pololu Valley. The trail leads you down a rugged path — still used by horses today — to a serene black sand beach surrounded by towering cliffs and lush greenery.

While the hike is relatively short, it's moderately challenging with a steep descent and return climb. Along the way, your naturalist guide shares insights about the valley's ecology, history, and cultural significance. At the bottom, the reward is Pololu Beach — a dramatic, unspoiled black sand beach with amazing views of the rugged North Kohala coastline.

This tour is perfect for those looking to explore a more remote, peaceful side of Hawai'i beyond the typical tourist attractions. Your guide provides all the gear and knowledge to make the experience both safe and memorable.

Private Mercedes van transportation, snacks, beverages, and professional photography included. Up to 7 guests per tour.
