Car Hire Kona

The beautiful ocean paradise of Kailua Kona, simply known as Kona, is located on the island of Hawaii (aka "the Big Island.) Book your car rental in Kona and discover the many treasures that this tropical landscape beholds. Most of the volcanoes responsible for forming the islands are still very much alive. Move at your own pace when you hire a car in Kona from Auto Europe. With many pick-up locations and a fleet guide offering a number of rental cars, the booking process is made quite easy with Auto Europe.

The entire island is over 4,000 square miles with a drastically varying landscape. Among the features are volcanoes, some of the worlds most massive and active. Get the opportunity to see molten lava flow as it encroaches the black landscape, eventually hissing as it falls into the raging waters of the Pacific. The experiences you will have will be forever remembered.

Take the Carter Rim Tour at the most active volcano in the world, Kilauea. As you will make your way around the rim of the volcano (which erupted just 30 years ago) you can stop and take in the wonders at the many scenic resting points. See the gushing ground-water fall down the volcanic cliff, creating a whirlwind of steam as it hits the hot earth. There are also a number of paths and visitor centres, making Kilauea the perfect location for a day trip with the entire family.

As you cruise the lush interior in your hire car, you will be given many opportunities to pull over and explore the thriving forests at multiple forest parks with walking trails. In the southern part of Kona, stretching the length of the western coast of the island is the Puuhonua o Honaunau National Historic Park. There you will find 180 acres of forest that once acted as a refuge and/or rehab for ancient Hawaiian lawbreakers. There they would perform sacred rituals of absolution, allowing them to return to regular society.
