Year-round

Snorkel with manta rays at night (bucket list!); visit Hawaii Volcanoes National Park (day trip); Kealakekua Bay snorkel; swim at Green Sand Beach; Kona coffee plantation tour

Tender to Kailua Pier; downtown Kona is walkable

Volcano viewing requires checking active lava flow status; manta ray snorkel is best at night; tender-only port; Big Island is largest island but least developed; drive times are very long

The manta ray night snorkel from Kona is one of the most magical experiences in the world - always sell this. Volcano Park requires early start due to drive distance.
