Hilo Coast

Pictures by QT Luong

The East end of the island, around Hilo, is the part which receives the most precipitation, several hundreds of inches of rain, which sustains a lush tropical vegetation, and many orchid farms. Precipitation has also limited development: Hilo ("America's rainiest city") has remained the last Hawaiian city unaffected by tourism.
