Green Beach, Big Island, Hawaii http://t.co/0IuwWviXzK

Russell Roberts‘s insight:

Beautiful picture of one of my favorite beaches. Due to its remoteness, you have to hike in to this secluded bay. It’s worth the effort. Be sure to bring extra water/food; wear sturdy boots; and protect your skin with sunblock and a large hat. Cell phone coverage is very spotty, so be sure to tell someone where you’re headed in case you are delayed. Enjoy this little treasure. Aloha, Russ.
