Enjoy an included take-out picnic lunch from Millie’s Deli. Peer into the depths of Halema'uma'u Crater, which has remarkably doubled in size since the recent 2018 eruption that drastically altered the island’s landscape. Watch steam clouds form as groundwater seeps into hot volcanic rock at the famous Steam Vents.
