Last Minute Tips & Suggestions

We leave on vacation one week from Thursday.

We don%26#39;t have a day by day itinerary but we do have some things booked, a list of things we%26#39;d like to do %26amp; see and places that we%26#39;d like to eat at. Any last minute tips or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. And any suggestions as to what can be done on the same day will also be very helpful.

We arrive in Maui on a Saturday afternoon and would like to know if there are any good Farmer%26#39;s Markets open on Sundays.

Last Minute Tips %26amp; Suggestions

You didn%26#39;t say where you are staying in Kohala. We like Brown%26#39;s Beach House and Roy%26#39;s for expensive fare. Of the two, Brown%26#39;s has a great sunset and ocean view.. Cafe Pesto in Kawaihae is less expensive, but not cheap. Gallery at Mauna Lani is very nice Chinese, reasonable.

Here are snorkeling ideas and info about petroglyphs.

Place of Refuge is maybe 90 minutes south of the Kohala resorts, so you%26#39;d do that on the Kohala Beaches day, unless you drive south to Volcano.

If you do drive south to Hilo, then you won%26#39;t pass Waipio and would need to do that a different day. North route to VNP you can do Waipio.
