"Let's be brutally honest, the only unique reason a cruise ship passenger would want to visit Hilo or Kona on their tight itinerary is to see the Volcano Park."
How dare you disparage Hilo. #$@&%*! We have a beautiful oceanfront, with a nice highway built on top of what was once the largest black sand beach in Hawaii. Pull right up; park on the berm to look at the ocean. The water quality is only slightly affected by our 2-mile-long breakwater (about 50% longer than needed.) Take a swim.
Our city leaders put up a nice long fence so when you drive to the berm, you don't have to worry about pesky pedestrians from downtown trying to walk to the ocean and hindering traffic flow. Our Hilo Bay shoreline is a renowned visitor attraction. Won't see anything like it anywhere else in Hawaii....
