Activities, Park Info, and More


The Big Island's # 1 attraction, Hawai‘i Volcanoes National Park displays the results of 70 million years of volcanism, migration, and evolution -- processes that thrust a bare land from the sea and clothed it with unique ecosystems, and a distinct human culture. The park highlights two of the world's most active volcanoes, and offers insights on the birth of the Hawaiian Islands and views of dramatic volcanic landscapes. Nearby volcano town offers some sights and activities of its own.

Hawai’i Volcanoes National Park is about a 2 hour drive South from Kailua-Kona, with lots to do and see along the way including coffee mills and South Point.  Entry is $10 per car load and you could spend all day here if you wanted to.  For a half-day trip, try to do the afternoon and - if it is flowing - head to watch the lava flow into the sea just before sunset.  There is a 24 hour information recording at (808) 985-6000.

The Volcano Art Center Gallery, located in the historic 1877 Volcano House, is still welcoming guests to Kilauea, the world's most active and visitor-friendly volcano on the Big Island of Hawai'i.

When you visit Kilauea, we invite you to tour our gallery located just a short walk from the Kilauea Visitor Center in Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. Here you will see art and fine crafts by over 300 artists. Much of the work is one-of-a-kind and can be found nowhere else in Hawai'i.

You will find an impressive array of wood items, photography, art glass, Hawaiiana, paintings, prints, ceramics, jewelry, and sculpture. We also offer a wide selection of Hawaiian inspired gifts, wearables, books, and music.Each gallery purchase benefits the artist or artisan who created it, and helps to support all of Volcano Art Center's endeavors, from classes and workshops and performances to gallery exhibits.
