Nothing says warm weather and relaxing like looking up at tall palm trees. In Hawaii, this is a common treat.
This small grove of king palm trees was photographed near the Big Island’s Kealakekua Bay on the Kona (leeward) coast, where the breeze comes in the afternoon from the east.
This area of the Big Island receives around 70 inches of rain each year, giving palm trees ample moisture to grow strong.
