Mountain Thunder Coffee Plantation

Hawaii's largest organic Kona coffee producer set in a stunning cloud forest on the slopes of Hualalai volcano — completely different scenery from the Highway 11 farms. Free 20-minute guided tours run every 30 minutes with coffee tasting included. Add the $10 family nature trail walk for a beautiful hike through lava tubes and lush forest with panoramic views at the end. Sheep roam the property as natural weeders — kids love spotting them. About 20 minutes from downtown Kona up a winding road.
