As we mentioned yesterday, Iao Valley State Monument reopens on May 1, 2023 along with a new reservation system for out-of-state visitors. The reservation system is live now and officials have provided more details about how it works. Let’s take a look at some of the key points identified in bold font.
– Reservations can be made up to 30 days in advance.
– Reservations are both date and time specific.
Visitors must reserve a specific window of time for your visit. At the time of implementation, there are 14 time options starting at 7:00 a.m. Each time slot has a duration of 1.5 hours. I tested the system for a reservation on May 1 and took a screenshot so that you can see the current reservation time slots.
– If visitors are parking a vehicle, they must arrive within the first 30 minutes of their reservation period or risk being denied access and/or parking.
– Visitors are only permitted to be in the park during their exact reservation period.
– Reservations apply rain or shine.
– When making the reservation, visitors pay for parking (per vehicle, if applicable) and entrance fee per person over the age of 3 years. At the time of implementation, the rates are $10 per vehicle for parking and $5 per person for entrance fee. These rates are subject to change.
