    A Local's Top 5 Places to Find Inspiration on the Big Island of Hawaii

     

    1. Waipio Valley - "Besides being one of the most beautiful places on the planet, I can bring my dogs and there's no cell phone reception!" 
    2. Waialea Beach - "The bare kiawe trees and rope swings are a natural playground for my kids to play"
    3. Volcano Town - "Hiking in the park and the Sunday morning farmer's market"
    4. Kiholo Bay - "My favorite place to camp for the weekend; the fresh water ponds are the best"
    5. Downtown Hilo - "I love the the patina of decay on the buildings, the Palace Theatre and the eclectic mix of people" 

     

     

    Explore Original Art at the Waikiki Beachcomber

     

    Margo Ray's electric and locally-rooted style made her a perfect collaborative partner for one of Waikiki's newest hotspots, the Waikiki Beachcomber. One of Ray's masterpieces spreads itself into a 64-foot mural, spotlighting one of Hawaii's most beloved hula dancers, Beverly Noa. Her colorful work brings spirit to the Waikiki Beachcomber's anchor restaurant, Maui Brewing Co.
