Onomea Scenic Drive~4 Miles
Onomea Scenic Drive is an incredible 4 miles long on the Hāmākua Coast just north of Hilo. It is a must do drive for the sheer beauty, exotic scents, and filtered sunlight that exist in these four short miles.
Onomea means "the best place" and is very rightly named. The tropical rain forest is lined with sparkling streams, breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean, scenic bays, and the collapsed Onomea Arch as the road twists and snakes under a canopy of trees, ferns, bamboo, etc. There are stunning photographic opportunities around every bend on this sometimes very narrow road including several one lane bridges that add to the quaintness of the area.
