Big Island, Hawaii Travel Guide
Hawaii Volcanoes National Park
The Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is a 207,643- acre preserve that has in it the Mauna Loa and Kilauea volcanoes, Hawaii’s only active volcanoes. Kilauea actually boasts the longest, continuous eruptions (along its east rift zone) in Hawaii’s documented history, averaging approximately 300,000 cubic feet of lava per day, covering more than 30 square miles and adding over 350 acres of land mass to the island. The park itself lies in the southern part of the island, between the Puna and Kau districts, extending south to the ocean, with the snow-capped Mauna Kea looming farther to the north of it.
