Details

ALOHA! Join us (again) for the Hawaiian Juggling Festival. The adventures are endless: Swimming, snorkelling, lava watching, diving, golfing, hiking, horseback riding, steam venting and warm ponding, dolphin and whale watching (sometimes even swimming with the dolphins) and of course juggling with your friends from around the world. We will have live music, Renegade Shows, daily workshops , a van for tours of the countryside, and several kayaks and an outrigger canoe for ocean tours and moonlight paddles.

The Festival will be held at Spencer Beach Park, about an hour's drive north of Kona on the Big Island of Hawaii. Spencer Beach Park is right on the ocean, with a lovely white sand beach, a huge lawn, level campsites, a court for the famous "volleyclub" tournament, a large pavilion for 24-hour juggling, live bands and Club Renegade shows, and last but not least, bathrooms with showers. Turtles lurk in the coral off shore and Humpback whales cruise the coast; last year we saw whales breaching every day.
