Description:

Located on the south side of the Big Island in Ocean View, Kula Kai Caverns offers a fascinating exploration of 1,000-year-old lava tubes with experienced spelunkers. These caves provide insights into lava science, cave formation, and the historical significance of their use by Hawaiians. As the youngest caves on Earth, they attract scientists globally. Kula Kai offers various tours ranging from introductory geology tours to more adventurous spelunking expeditions, requiring participants to gear up with helmets, headlamps, and kneepads. Those with claustrophobia can opt for easier, lighted trail tours, but reservations are required in advance, and wheelchair access is unavailable within the caverns.
