12 miles straight-line distance19 kilometers straight-line distanceThis stunning property is situated on Kealakekua Bay near the town of Captain Cook on the Big Island, Hawaii. It is on the west side of the island in the Kona District and is bordered to the north by Kakekua and to the south by Honaunau-Napoopoo. The town was named after the British Explorer, Captain James Cook, a naval captain and navigator who explored the seaways in the 1700's. The Captain Cook Monument was made to honor his life and, ultimately his death, in Kealakekua Bay itself. Kona is most widely known for its award-winning, gourmet coffee bean production and is recognized at the Kona Coffee Living History Farm. St. Benedicts Painted Church is a famous Roman Catholic Church located in South Kona. Keauhou Bay and Honaunau Bay are popular snorkeling sites that are home to manta rays and green sea turtles respectively.Activities near Captain Cook

Guests can enjoy direct access to Kealakekua Bay where they can launch a kayak, paddle out and explore this fantastic bay. It is not uncommon to see spinner dolphins and also whales breaching during the winter months. The bay is also ideal for snorkeling. Deep sea fishing, rafting, sailing, and whale watching are other ways to spend time on the water. A stroll through the Kona Coffee Living History Farm will provide insight into Kona's coffee pioneers dating back to the early 20th century. Visitors can walk through the coffee and macadamia nut orchards, tour the historic farmhouse, and visit the donkey and chickens.
In the town of Captain Cook, there are a few popular restaurants, in addition to a farmers market offering local produce and art. The Captain Cook Monument is a famous landmark on the island and is only accessible by hiking, kayaking or boat tour. Beachcombing, shelling and bird watching are options for a leisurely day or perhaps a scenic drive to do some sightseeing and take pictures would be a memorable experience. -
