    Big Island recommendations?

    Killer trip! Already want to go back. Between family plans and juggling kids it was hard to get much away from base camp, but we managed a couple shorter excursions. All told, managed to fit in family beach sessions (and swim workouts) at hapuna a couple times, a trip up to waimea and it was...

    Flight heads out this week - so any last second suggestions, now’s the time! The surf looks basically flat the whole time we’re there (makes it easy - no wave chasing). Not sure exactly what’ll happen but will be happy to share a lil post-trip summary. Thanks for the recs!
