KONA AIRPORT (KOA) JEEP RENTAL
Located 7 miles northwest of Kailua-Kona, KOA is the (slightly) larger of the two Big Island airports and is located on the west side of Hawaii. Hilo is on the eastside. Rent a Jeep in Kona.
Kona International (KOA) is a quaint, outdoor airport with just two terminals. Be prepared to carry your bags more than in a traditional, large airport. Although the airport serves an average of 9000 passengers per day, there are limited restaurants and shopping within the security area.
