Here are 10 Big Island experiences you’ll love today (Sun, Apr 19)

This Sunday’s vibe

Feel that soft makai breeze? It’s the kind of Sunday where the plumeria scent hangs in the air and Hilo Bay turns to liquid gold by late afternoon. Perfect timing to slide into Happy Hour at Ka Lihikai at 93 Banyan Drive, watch the water, and toast the weekend as the palms sway.

If your spirit’s craving a reset, the Anawa Sunday Ritual Renewal out in HPP gathers in the Awapuhi Labyrinth for a gentle, communal pause before the week ahead. It’s donation-based, welcoming, and easy to bring the whole ʻohana.

Don’t‑miss highlights

Happy Hour at Ka Lihikai is that sweet spot from 3:00–5:00 pm—good grinds, drink specials, and those iconic Hilo Bay views from the DoubleTree Grand Naniloa. Can you hear the glasses clink and the water lapping the shore?

The Anawa Sunday Ritual Renewal is all about community care—group blessing, a mindful labyrinth walk, and sound to settle your nervous system. Imagine exhaling under ironwood shade as the week softens open.

Got adventurous keiki? Aerial practice at SPACE is pure joy. Beginning Silks with Ellen and Silks with Ellen | Mixed Level are $15 drop‑ins for ages 7 and up—think giggles, new skills, and that amazing “I did it!” grin. If you’ve been curious about circus events, this is your friendly doorway.

Round out the evening with true community at the Sunday Community Service & Potluck (In His Presence Church). Service begins at 5:00 pm, and the potluck rolls at 7:00 pm—come as you are, bring a favorite dish if you can, and leave with a full heart.
