Welcome to Puako…a coastal town without the mega-resorts

And, of course, the historical marker... — And, of course, the historical marker…

In the short history provided by HawaiiLife.com, they say that the area has been many things over the years. “The life story of that small community began nearly a millennium ago. It has been a fishing village, a sugar plantation farm, a honey farm, a feeding stop for cattle drives, and today, the only residential oceanfront community on the South Kohala Coast of the island of Hawaii.”

Puako is a beautiful little area worth a visit to get away from the hustle and bustle of the rest of the coast.

By the way, I love the beach photo in the slideshow from www.mybigislandvacation.com and that great turtle shot from www.alphamatte.com/2011/05/puako-bay-snorkeling. For more of their photos, check out their sites!

About Terry

I started out as a skip tracer. Just in case you don’t know, that’s the guy who finds the people who don’t want to be found. It was the little things—getting paid to lie—that made skip tracing the fun part of the job.

Those years of chasing deadbeats taught me many valuable life lessons, such as liars come from all walks of life, and always keep your car in the garage.
