Big Island East

Black and White pictures by QT Luong

The North-East coast of the island is its most rugged, with several sections not easily accessible by road. The East end is the part which receives the most precipitation on the island, several hundreds of inches of rain, which sustains a lush tropical vegetation, and many orchid farms. Precipitation has also limited development, and Hilo ("America's rainiest city") has remained the last Hawaiian city unaffected by tourism.
