OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
Safe
swimming, proximity to downtown Hilo, and a
freshwater-fed swimming hole called "the Ice
Pond" that flows into the backwaters of Hilo
Bay are the enticements of this cove. No,
there really isn't ice in the swimming hole;
it just feels that way on a hot sultry day.
The large pond, between Hilo Seaside Hotel
and Harrington's Restaurant, is a favorite
of local kids who enjoy jumping into and
frolicking in the chilly fresh- and
saltwater mix. There is no real beach here,
however. Lapped by tranquil waters, this
beach is fed by chilly freshwater springs.
