Aloha and welcome to Onomea Bay and the Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden This garden in a valley on the ocean is located off of Highway 19 on the lush Hamakua Coast, 8 12 miles north of Hilo in the sheltered Onomea Valley on the Big Island of Hawaii.. In Hawaii, onomea means the best place. And indeed, no better place exists. The Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden is a museum of living plants that attracts photographers, gardeners, botanists, scientists, and nature lovers from around the world. The Gardens collection of tropical plants is international in scope. Over 2,000 species, representing more than 125 families and 750 genera, are found in this oneofakind garden. The 40acre valley is a natural greenhouse, protected from buffeting tradewinds and blessed with fertile volcanic soil. Some of the Gardens enormous mango and coconut palm trees are over 100 years old. Tropical plants that struggle to grow in homes and gardens across America reach gigantic proportions here.
