Vegetation
All aboard!
With over 20 years of watching Peles rivers
of fire enter the ocean our goal is to give you a lava
experience like no other. After a quick briefing from Captain
Shane we're underway. From the get go this is an exciting adventure tour.
As we pull out of the boat ramp we'll pass surfers surfing the famous
waves here at Po'hoiki Bay. We'll cruise south to MacKensie
State Park a popular local hangout and fishing area. Shortly after we
pass by Malama flats which looks like it could have been
a set from Gilligins Island and gained the locals name "Gilligins"
cause of this. Along the coast there are numerous black sand beaches including
Kehena Beach. Foxes Beach, and Kalapana/Kaimu
Beach which has returned since its destrucion in 1987. During
most of the trip you can look up the mountain where the volcano continues
to bellow out smoke. On the side of the coast outside Kalapana
is the Cave of Refuge, once a shelter for women &
children during warfair. Once past civilization we enter the freshly lava
covered coastline of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. This area shows the
remains from the various flows that touched the seas. Currently we're
experiencing regular bench break offs, which once triggered
avalanche into the depths below leaving amazing cross sections of cooling
lava and lava tubes scattered along the cliffs left behind. Also new untouched
black sand beaches cover this recently lava filled area. Drips and lava
scupltures blanket the coastline as if you were there when it was still
flowing. A once in a lifetime experience to the center of life.
Hawaii Volcanoes
National Park - the newest land
on earth created within the last 6 monthes, lava sculptures,
bench breaks, pristine black sand beaches that were recently created and
may be gone after the next earthquake.
When the Lava' s RED HOT
No better way to see lava hands down. we sit and observe Peles magnificent
Rivers of Fire cascading into the Pacific Ocean. The Sizzling Sounds and
heat off the lava will impress even the most seasoned travelers. This
special occurance happens periodically and can be here today gone tomarrow,
so when its hot don't wait.
