Best Glamping near Nanakuli, HI

Camp Mokuleia and Bellows Field Beach Park offer distinctive glamping accommodations along Oahu's scenic coastlines. Camp Mokuleia provides spacious tent cabins positioned directly on the beach, complete with showers, sinks, picnic tables, and access to toilet facilities housed in a yurt. The property features electric hookups, drinking water, and fires are permitted at the shared fire pit area. Bellows Field provides similar amenities with the addition of water hookups and a market on site. Both locations accommodate glamping guests in areas that balance privacy with beach access. One visitor noted, "They have tent 'cabins' right on the beach which were pretty nice, and the beach area was really nice and not crowded at all."

The northwestern coast location of Camp Mokuleia offers protection from strong eastern winds, making it ideal for winter glamping when other beaches experience high winds. Nearby attractions include "Lost Survivors Beach" where the pilot of Lost was filmed, and a short drive to hiking trails at the state park. Bellows Field Beach Park, located near Waimanalo, provides glamping guests with easy access to Kailua and surrounding beaches. On-site activities include stand-up paddleboarding in the calm waters and opportunities to observe parachuters from the nearby skydiving company. According to a camper, "There is a shopette within walking distance of every site as well as a gas station, mini golf, a driving range, 3 hiking trails, 1 walking path, a small bar, and a Starbucks."

Oahu camping
Camping in hawaii is special no matter the time and place. Bellows has been a favorite because the waves are perfect for buggie boarding and the beach is peaceful. This spot has plenty of trees to set up a slack line and hammock to relax and play.

Camp Mokuleia
Super Clean and Incredibly Friendly
I camped here in January 2021 during peak Covid closures when the campground was not yet re-opened for group camping.

In 'normal' times this campground is mostly used for events and it's well set up for that. If you're independently camping, I recommend calling ahead and reserving one of the sites on the beach. The sites are huge.

During covid they were only using every other site, and had installed a shower and sink at each one. The bathrooms are a walk away inside a yurt. We were assigned a bathroom for just our site and given a key for it.

The property has a gate with a code that you can go in and out as you please, and the staff were really helpful and kind.

There is one large fire pit area to share, and we had a table at our site. You are not able to drive in your car, but it's only a short walk, even to the furthest away sites.

We had the whole property to ourselves one night - but if you're visiting when events are operational, this might not be the case, so I recommend checking how busy they are when you call to reserve.

They also have tent 'cabins' right on the beach which were pretty nice (but you still bring your own mats and bags).

For me, the greatest thing about this site is that it is located on the NW side of Oahu. In January, the winds were strongest from the East and we had to vacate our other campground when winds were up to 20MPH off the ocean. This side of the island gave us a break from the wind.

It's a very short walk to "Lost Survivors Beach" (where they filmed the pilot of Lost) and a short and beautiful drive to the state park and hike where the road deadends just a few miles past the campground. For supplies, it's about 15 minutes back to Haliewa where there are tons of restaurants, food cards, groceries and a Longs Drug.

Great for a weekend retreat from the craziness othe week.f
Me and my wife cone camping here at least 10 times a year if not more. It s a great place to be with the sound of the breaking waves at every camping site and a lot of good amenities. There is a shopet with is walking distance of every site as well as a gas station, mini golf, a driving range, 3 hiking trails, 1 walking path, a small bar, and a stabucks. The staff is always so welcoming and its truly a great place to spend your time.

Camp Mokuleia
Great mellow beach area!
This campground is set up for anything from large groups (50+) to small families. There are cabins to rent out or places to pitch a tent. The water is pretty mellow (at least during the summer) and is great for stand up paddling. This is on the Northwestern tip of Oahu and is a must see. Across the street there is also a skydiving company, so throughout the day you will often times see parachuters appearing in the sky.

Camp Mokuleia
Amazing spot if surfing and climbing!
This campground is very close to the highest concentration of rock climbs in all of Hawaii! The Mokule'ia wall has over 60 climbs ranging from beginner to expert and includes trad, sport, and toprope routes. One of the other things we loved about this site is the proximity to Ka'ena Point! It feels like you're standing out in the ocean without anything around it's such a small point! One of favorite places we hung out at during our trip to Hawaii

Convenient Location
This campground has extremely close access to the beach, which is nice, and it's not far from Kailua. The individual sites aren't really marked, so it feels a little like a free for all, especially if you're arriving on Saturday. The area where all of the tent spots are is all sand, so be prepared with whatever vehicle you're driving. The bathrooms were decent. The campsites were all very crowded and loud throughout the weekend, but most everyone cleared out before Sunday evening.

My campsite was right by the bathrooms, and closer to the beach than most others, which was nice.

Crowded Clamping
Date of stay: September 19 Campsite: #16

This area is available to DoD ID card holders only.

Tent campsites are way too close together! Every 2 sites should be combined to make 1. Ocean view sites are very sandy and if you are near the restroom, be prepared for beach goers to walk right through your site to use the toilet...! (Side note, that’s my biggest pet peeve!!)

Tons of amenities here though, putt-putt, driving range, bar w/ pool table, foose, beach equipment rental, paint ball, small bouldering area!

NO PETS (DOGS) ALLOWED ON ANY HAWAII STATE CAMPGROUNDS!
This website is in error. There are no dogs allowed on ANY Hawaii State Campground!!! Don't know if you know this or not. So if you have a dog in Hawaii, you cannot bring your loved one(s) camping anywhere. Too bad.
