Aeropuerto Internacional de Hilo
About
Found on Hawaii (Big Island), Aeropuerto Internacional de Hilo sits at 2450 Kekuanaoa St, Hilo, HI 96720, United States. The location places it on the windward side of the island, serving Hilo and the surrounding Puna district rather than the Kona coast.
The Hilo setting means the facility draws from the town itself and the wider east side, with Volcano, Waimea and the Kohala Coast within the island's road network. Since no road or regular ferry links the Hawaiian islands, travel between them is by air, making this a key arrival point for visitors reaching the Big Island's eastern side. This is a car rental location, and it is known for serving arriving travellers who need a vehicle. A score of 4.4 out of 5 from 1266 reviews reflects steady, high-volume use. Further details are available at http://hawaii.gov/ito.
Hawaiian food includes plate lunches, poke made from raw fish, and kalua pork cooked in an imu earth oven, which visitors can try around Hilo after landing. Trade winds blow from the northeast across Hawaii, bringing most rain to the windward coasts, so the Hilo side is notably wetter than Kona.
With a 4.4 out of 5 score across 1266 reviews, Aeropuerto Internacional de Hilo is a well-used arrival and vehicle-hire point on the island's east side.
