Came here the first day my husband and I arrived to the Big Island, and it was great! We typically…read moreclimb at indoor climbing gyms all over California (I'm about V4 solid and husband is V6 solid), and considering the limited space they have, I can say they've done well! The routesetting (I heard was done by all women?) was fun and challenging, there are both slab and overhung-ish problems, routes of varying difficulties (so beginner-friendly and above!), and the customer service and pricing are on point! Keep in mind that it's street parking only, but with that, they're walking distance to different restaurants and stuff. Also note that this is a boulder only gym, so no ropes. Fear not though, there are tons of soft crash pads around, the walls aren't incredibly high, and the team gives you a safety run down before you get going! Give them a try! We'd definitely come back.

We started just talking story and they let my nephew climb for an hour while the party set up. I wish I got her name but she was so kind. Gave him pointers on how to climb and still went out of her way to make us feel welcome even though they were supposed to be closed. If ever we visit Hilo again we will definitely stop by. And if you are visiting they are worth going to! So much Aloha found there.

I stopped by an open class to practice certain moves that I had already previously learned that I wanted to find tune. Patrick was super friendly and helpful. The studio was super easy to find. It was really hot which I wasn't used to other studios. I've been to well ventilated places so I found that challenging. I got into the swing of things easily, I took more breaks to make sure I didn't get hot or lightheaded. When I visit Hawaii again I'll be sure to check the studio out. I would love to check out one of their lyra classes and get to know the instructors a little bit more. They also had some shirts and other merch available for purchase which I got one and it looks super cute!

The lobby is open and welcoming with a cafe, exhibits, and advertisements for events and shows. The staff here were also welcoming, inviting us to come in and explore.

There are also great restaurants, markets, and stores nearby.
