Maps & Guides for Hawaii’s Big Island

Description: Hawaii Island is the largest of the Hawaiian islands (at 4,000 square miles, it comprises over 60% of the archipelago’s land area). But with a population of just 200,000 and only one smallish city (Hilo/Population: 44,000), it is almost all nature—mountains & rain forests, ranches & coffee plantations, volcanoes & black sand beaches. It is a truly special place. Included here is a most excellent topographical map of Hawaii (often referred to as “the Big Island”), showing the diamond-shaped island’s astonishing terrain, as well as major roads, towns and public spaces (including Hawaii Volcanoes National Park), and more detailed maps of a few popular areas (including Hilo, Kailua-Kona and Kilauea Volcano) (from James Bier/University of Hawaii Press, 1998); an excellent, handy (5.5 x 8) but comprehensive (just under 300 pages) guidebook to Hawaii Island (“Hawaii-The Big Island Revealed”). The volume contains numerous maps, a guide to the island’s 15 best beaches and its many amenities for outdoor enthusiasts (hiking & camping, swimming & snorkeling, boating & kayaking, and so much more) (from Wizard Publications Inc, 2020); as well as two excellent National Geographic maps & guides for the Hawaiian Islands, a popular subject for Nat Geo over the years (from 1976 and 1995).
