Mauna Kea rises nearly 14,000 feet out of the Pacific; the one Big Island experience that is neither a hike nor a beach day.

Sunset from the summit, then stargazing at a lower elevation with two telescopes. Cold-weather gear and a warm dinner are included, because the summit drops below freezing even in summer.
