Hilo and the Hamakua Coast
From waterfalls to botanical gardens, the drive north of Hilo along the Hamakua Coast is full of incredible, lush scenery and quieter roads. A Jeep rental in Hawaii is well-suited to this region’s changing weather and winding routes and you can stop at overlooks, small towns, and roadside fruit stands as you go.
