Kailua Kona lies smack in the middle of coffee country on the Big Island. This is the home of Kona coffee: a scenic, tropical and narrow region on the slopes of the Hualalai and Mauna Loa volcanoes in the north and south Kona district. Kona Coffee is world-renowned and consistently rated among the very best gourmet coffees in the world.  If you are a coffee enthusiast your visit to Big Island wouldn’t be complete without a trying out a good cup of Kona Coffee. You can do this as easily as with a well-placed order in a roadside coffee shack, a cafe, or restaurant, but you can also go on a farm tour.
