Hawaiian Medicine & Grindz
Offering local Hawaiian eats and fresh locally grown Hawaiian Kava.
Most kava bars offer powdered kava, but this bar grows and harvests kava grown on their farm or from local farmers!
Very rad!
Also, Kanaka Kava is the FIRST KAVA BAR across the Hawaiian Islands and North America and...maybe even the world!

Sightseeing
Kua Bay for short, one of the most beautiful, blue, pristine waters!
The best time to visit is actually early in the morning when the wind is light and the water is calm, making it a pleasant morning swim.
NOTE: Be respectful of the Ocean. Many beaches on the Big Island have shore breaks (meaning that the waves crashes on shore and can be very dangerous! People have broken collar bones, ribs, and neck from shore breaks).
