Whalers General Store
About
On Hawaii (Big Island), Whalers General Store holds 69-275 Waikōloa Beach Dr # A5 in Waikoloa Village, HI 96738, United States, on the island's western side. The address sits within the Waikoloa Village area, close to the Kohala Coast and within reach of Waimea, Kailua-Kona, Kona, Hilo, Volcano, Puna and Captain Cook.
A 3.2 out of 5 average from 39 reviews gives a mixed picture of what shoppers find here. The store sits on the leeward coast, among the island's visitor accommodation rather than in a quiet inland town. The Kohala Coast resorts lie along the same stretch of coastline.
Hawaii's coasts divide into windward and leeward, with the leeward side drier, and this address falls on that drier western shore. Driving is the usual way to cover ground on the island, and the larger islands run public bus services alongside the rental cars. Waimea and Kailua-Kona both sit within a reasonable drive along the coast road.
English and Hawaiian are both official languages of Hawaii, and Hawaiian words appear widely in place names, so visitors will see them on road signs and in the names of the nearby towns. Hawaiian culture includes hula dance, oli chants and the voyaging traditions of Polynesian navigators, which shape the character of the island. The wetter season runs from November to March, while April to October is drier, and the leeward coast where the store sits stays drier than the windward side.
