Extreme Exposure Fine Art Gallery is a favorite store and an essential stop on the Big Island, considered a must-see on any visitor’s Hawaiian bucketlist. The gallery features a wide variety of photographers and a great selection of breathtaking photography and art, including amazing images of lava and the natural beauty of Hawaii. The mementos and art for sale are seriously stunning, with items like killer lava-image coffee mugs, calendars for gifts, and postcards. The business also offers immersive guided tours to parts of the island largely inaccessible to outsiders, including lava tours, providing a real deal experience that skillfully immerses visitors in the wild, awesome, and untamed spirit of the place. The owners are described as the loveliest, most kind, thoughtful, and respectful people. They are very informative and pleasant, with a clear passion for volcanoes and the island's history. They are patient, never rushed, and invested in making every visit exactly what it needs to be, making clients feel like they are spending the day with an old friend. The service is exceptionally helpful, whether in the shop or arranging shipments. Purchases like prints can be shipped with free shipping and no tax, making the process easy. The overall experience is so profound that it makes the Big Island feel like going home, thanks to the way it is shared. This is a place not to cut corners for anyone wanting the true, awe-inspiring Big Island.
This is a beautiful store in Hilo definitely worth the visit.

We met the loveliest woman that runs the shop. Ask her about her husband who took the photos.
