This place is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G...if you have the chance to go run don't walk...not to be missed...its very tropical , a jungle with amazing vistas of the ocean tucked away inside

$15/adult. For $5, a golf cart assists cane-walkers down/up the steep, 300-foot boardwalk. Flowers ! Orchids, ginger , cats whiskers, firecrackers.

Stunningly beautiful garden with amazing plants and views by the ocean. However, it’s enraging and stupid that they won’t let you hike down to the beach . Asinine really.

The floura and fauna are spectacular.

Really lovely. Worth a season pass if you are a local. Don't miss the hiking trails near the ocean.

Plant lovers will enjoy this place. The trail is full of flora & vegetation so you feel like you're in the jungle

Just above the scenic route is the Onomea Tea Company. Rob and Mike process the tea leaves into white, green, oolong and black teas and are Certified organic by International Certification Services Read more

A must see on the Big Island , lots of beautiful tropical plants & amazing views ❤️

If you have to pee while you’re on the scenic drive the restrooms at the garden are easily accessible, no entry fee required to use them🚽👍🏾

Steep entry fee ...$20 but it is lovely

Also Nearby the Garden is the Hawaii Plantation Museum where you can learn about Sugar Industry in Hawaii Read more

Make sure to spray bug spray before getting out of the car, you get attacked as soon as the car door opens. Off! works really well .

This is a "must go" location while on the Big Island ! It's between Hakalau Vacation Rental in Hakalau and Hilo.

Actually kind of a long walk, but beautiful garden .

The parking lot is 10-15 degrees warmer than the trail . Bring an extra layer.

Great place to spend an afternoon. Lots to see and walk through.

One of my favorite places in the world! This garden has everything. Just beautiful.

This is one of the most beautiful places in the world 😍

Bring bug repellent . Very nice trail .

By the shoreline there is black & green sand. Worth the walk down there. Its steep but paved.

$30 admission per person

They have umbrellas to borrow and return. No need to bring your own.

You gotta do this by far the best thing on the island !

It‘s worth the 25$

The return trip up the hill is a HIKE !

Bug spray is a must! And always borrow one of their umbrellas.
