 Kona, Hawaii  09.10 ~  Sheraton Keauhou Bay Resort & Spa announces “Hot Time in Hawaii,” their newest package for guests of the oceanfront Kona coast resort.

Hot Time in Hawaii highlights one of Hawaii’s most unique activities for adventurers – the option to see sizzling red hot lava by land or sea as it flows in to the Pacific Ocean. Guests may decide to take a day trip to Hawaii Volcanoes National Park – Sheraton Keauhou Bay is the nearest resort to the park, which is an International Biosphere Reserve and Hawaii's only World Heritage Site.  Activities enjoyed once in the park include hikes into the Thurston Lava Tube, stops at scenic outlooks along the Crater Rim drive, peering into the smoldering caldera, and picnicking in a rain forest while enjoying a Sheraton Keauhou power-packed box lunch for two.

Combo tours are also available. Sheraton Keauhou...
