Park
a.k.a. Pu'ala'a County Park
|

Highway 137
East Hawaii
This spring fed pool is part natural and part man-made.
It is also volcanically heated to a balmy 90 degrees!
|
|
|
The bottom of the pool is sand and mud
and has a slight sulfur smell. The water is brackish but
very clear and fish often swim along with the visitors.
A small inlet separates the pool from the ocean and allows
the fish access to the pool.
|
|
|
 |
|
The area is surrounded by palm trees,
green grass and the Pacific Ocean making it a very beautiful
and uncrowded tropical retreat.
