It appears there are at least three Java libraries for Keyhole Markup Language (KML):
As far as the best, that would depend on your needs. JAK appears to be the best supported at the present time.

Just an FYI on gekmlib, as posted on the gekmlib google code wiki page 'This project hasn't been updated for several years. If you would like to take over the project feel free to message me. It seems the version of KML used by Google Earth is 2.2 nowadays (March 2011). This library was written for 2.1 so you might not be able to access all elements.' – pat8719 Feb 15 '12 at 21:15

2JAK is no longer maintained, see [this](https://github.com/micromata/javaapiforkml/issues/18) issue on GitHub. – EdwinW Jun 01 '16 at 22:15
