Keauhou Shopping Center Expands Local Offerings with Two New Merchants

Keauhou Shopping Center announced the additions of two locally owned businesses to its diverse shopping and dining experience. Joining the center are Clover and Mug, featuring a delightful fusion of traditional Korean cuisine and American favorites, and Dolphin  Discoveries & Ocean Adventures, a renowned name in snorkeling and boat charters along the Kona coastline for over 30 years. 

“We are excited to welcome Clover and Mug and Dolphin Discoveries & Ocean Adventures to the tenant ‘ohana at Keauhou Shopping Center,” said General Manager Stephen Hicks. “These Kona-based, small businesses further enrich our already vibrant array of local and national brands, catering to the diverse needs and tastes of kama‘āina and visitors alike.” 

Drawing inspiration from the vibrant cultural background of the Kona community, Clover and Mug presents an exclusive menu featuring refreshing fruit beverages, both hot and cold coffee delights crafted from 100% certified Kona coffee sourced from nearby farms, specialty treats such as the innovative Croffle—a delightful blend of a croissant and waffle—and freshly prepared sandwiches and paninis, including their acclaimed bulgogi panini. 

Dolphin Discoveries offers a wide range of marine experiences, from thrilling night snorkeling encounters with manta rays to daytime snorkel excursions, captivating dolphin watch and snorkel tours, whale-watching adventures along the stunning Kona coastline, and personalized private boat charters tailored to your preferences. 

Both merchants are located in Phase I of the Center, with Clover and Mug operating daily from 7:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. and Dolphin Discoveries & Ocean Adventures operating daily from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. 

These new additions enhance the diversity of offerings at the Center, which already boasts 27 shops,  restaurants, and service providers, the majority of which are locally owned and operated. This underscores Keauhou Shopping Center's dedication to nurturing small, homegrown businesses and cultivating a strong sense of community.

Hicks added, “At Keauhou Shopping Center, we strive to be more than just a retail destination; we aim to be a thriving community piko that celebrates the essence of Keauhou and the broader Kona region. Through events, enhancing our tenant offerings, and community collaborations, we are dedicated to fostering a resilient Keauhou community.”
