Great snorkelling ! Follow the reef to the left of the monument when getting into the water. It extends out to the rocky outcrop you see 200-250 feet across the bay , swim 20-30 feet offshore

This is a hard hike. Arrive early and leave early. The afternoon heat is hard to hike out.

We took a 7am kayak tour with another couple with bigislandkayak.com and had the cove to ourselves for a few hours before the big boats arrived. Beautiful reefs, plenty of fish to sea, warm water.

Tough hike but worth it. Bring water, good shoes and swim suit. The highlight of this hike is swimming near the monument. Lots of cool fish to see and it's nice to take a dip to cool off

The way in is BY FOOT via Ka'Awaloa Trail (physically demanding uphill return), or BY KAYAK (requires a kayak/rental/tour). With preparation (an extra shirt and a gal of H2O) definitely would hike

Believe it or not, although you do not need a passport, the land around this monument is British Territory. Best snorkeling on the island is in the waters just below it.

I loved it here! There were amazing fish everywhere and the coral reef was absolutely beautiful. There was a very steep drop off, though, so be warned. Bring water shoes and kayak to the monument.

Not a hike for the those who aren't in shape. Almost killed us. DO NOT hike back up mid-day when the sun is beating.

Given the cultural significance Cook had on the antipodes, it's remarkable how little signage etc there is to the monument. We finally chanced upon finding it but only from Kealakekua Bay
