Kapa'a Beach Park

With its rocky coastline and panoramic ocean views, Kapa'a Beach Park Campground in Kapaau on the Big Island offers a serene and uncrowded retreat for campers seeking tranquility, stunning sunsets, and a chance to immerse themselves in Hawaii’s rugged coastal beauty. This secluded camping spot boasts campsites right by the water, an idyllic setting for whale watching during the breeding season (January through March) or enjoying uninterrupted views of Maui and the islands of Lanai and Kaho'olawe on clear days.

Campers will find basic facilities including picnic tables, a covered pavilion, restrooms, barbecues, and parking, ensuring a comfortable camping experience. However, there is no potable water on-site, so visitors must bring their own. This campground is best suited for those who appreciate solitude and are prepared for a more self-reliant camping experience.

Located just six miles from Hawi, and close to attractions such as Pololū Valley Lookout and the historic King Kamehameha Statue, Kapa'a Beach Park is well-positioned for day trips exploring North Kohala’s rich history and natural wonders. Whether it's a quiet weekend getaway or an extended stay, this park delivers a quintessential Hawaiian coastal camping experience away from the crowds.
