Best Kilauea Iki Crater Tours & Trips

The remnants of a late 1959 Kilauea volcanic eruption that had a lava flow peak a 1.45 million cubic meter per hour and spewed it as high as 1,900 feet can still be seen and felt in this steaming crater on The Big Island. Kilauea Iki Crater's floor is still warm and rainwater running into its fractures causes steam. Visitors can walk along the floor or across Byron Ledge above the crater that grew from 18 million tons of lave from the eruption that solidified in the 1990s. The 2001 version of "Planet of the Apes" was shot at the crater. Show All
