Discovering Volcano Village, Hawaii Island

Volcano Village is known as the gateway community to Volcanoes National Park, one of the most visited places on Hawaii Island. Did you know it has a thriving artists community? And an award winning bed and breakfast, Kilauea Lodge and Restaurant? We take you on a 36 hour adventure to Volcano, show you the lodge and restaurant, an exceptionally clear day in the national park along with the Thurston Lava Tube with no one inside, and the art galleries we discovered by bike!
If you want to book a night or five at the Kilauea Lodge, go here: www.kilauealodge.com
They offer add ons, including Volcano Winery wine in your room and a scrumptious picnic lunch with a blanket that you can take anywhere on your adventures around the area.

To learn more about the Volcano art galleries:
Volcano Art Center: volcanoartcenter.org
Volcano Garden Arts - www.volcanogardenarts.com
2400 Fahrenheit Glass Gallery: www.2400f.com
We had such a great time, and much of it was due to the incredible hospitality and aloha spirit of the staff and management at the Lodge. The gift shop there is a treasure unto itself and the manager's office holds a gem of a leader, Janet Coney, who has been with the lodge for decades. She gave us maps of the galleries, helped me get a coveted art piece at the lodge and made sure our room was fantastic. Mahalo!

Aloha, I live in Captain Cook, recently found this video, well done.
I both stayed and ate at the Kilauea Lodge about 15 years ago . . . to this day, I have not had a better slice of Prime Rib anywhere! Believe me, I have searched.
When I was there, there was an actual Emmy Award on the fireplace mantel. I don't recall the story behind it, but was cool to see none the less. Accommodations were great and well kept, a fun place to visit for a weekend 'staycation'.

When you come back again, be sure to check out the Cooper Center events and markets. This is the heart of the Village as it is run 100% by volunteers in our community in partnership with Hawai'i County. If you would like to support the community directly, I recommend going to the weekly markets that feature multiple artists, farmers and crafters. It is much more helpful to support the arts where you can actually meet the artists working every day to support themselves and their families. Mahalo for your beautiful videos! They are very well informed & inspiring. I hope to load a video soon of our annual 4th of July Festival that I helped coordinate. Hope to see you soon on an early Sunday morning 🤙
