How does a dip in a volcanically heated thermal pool next to the ocean sound? Sign me up!

This somewhat hidden gem is located off of highway 137 in Pahoa on the Big Island, near mile marker 10, you will discover Ahalanui Park. The pool is a balmy 90 degrees. The setting is gently swaying palm trees all around you and the sound of the ocean surf in the background.

You feel protected in the pool by a manmade wall, which separates it from the ocean. But if you look off into the distance, you feel as if you are swimming in a hot tub in the sea. A refreshing swim in the pool of Ahalanui does wonders for the soul.  Ahhhh…
