Fire and Water, or Should We Say Lava?

The rumors are true and we are SO excited to be opening a new store on the BIG ISLAND  of Hawai’i! We will be opening on November, so call your gals on the Big Island & let ’em know we are coming for them! Follow @sanlorenzo_bigisland on instagram to stay tuned for updates.

Our O’ahu brand ambassadors Michelle and Tatyana couldn’t wait until the store opening in November to explore, so they packed their bags and took a flight over as soon as they could. Their hearts were hopeful, but nothing could prepare them for the adventures to come, including the opportunity to take a spontaneous trip with Hawaiian Lava Boat Tours.

Our first morning, Tatyana and I awoke to the the most gorgeous sunlight in our jungle bungalow.  The birds were singing and the smell of the ocean joined us as we explored our tree house and enjoyed a yummy breakfast.

Next, we cruised to a stunning black sand beach.  Prepared with our dive gear, we set out into the crystal clear waters.  We swam for hours off shore and around to secret coves, where we climbed up rocks and practiced our diving. We laughed and played all day in the waves, it was BEAUTIFUL.

Then, it happened. Our encounter with lava. We met up with Hawaiian Lava Boat Tours, loaded on the boat, shaking with anticipation, and began the hour long ride to the volcano.

At first sight we could see the volcano far off in the distance. Then suddenly, it was there. What can only be described as pure magic, we experienced lava pouring into the ocean. Bursting and bubbling the fiery red molten lava spewed just feet away from us.  In awe, we could barely contain our joy, occasionally dancing and dipping our toes in at safe distances.

 We couldn’t believe our eyes and the memory will never be forgotten. HUGE thanks to Captain Kai and Hawaiian Lava Boat Tours for such an incredible, unique experience
