Now, this is the understated part. The Kealakekua Bay can also be toured on horseback. I hadn't planned on this, nor the sun-drenched morning hike, but the staff at
Kona Belle B&B had egged me into trying out the other more strenuous pursuits. After half an hour down the dirtroad (of some obscure name I couldn't even pronounce), I gave up and escaped. I rented wind surfing equipment with some dude who also rented a suite at Kona Belle B&B. We spotted spinning dolphins along the way.
