    Haleakala National Park, Hawaii

    When it comes to camping locations in paradise, Waianapanapa State Park remains an unspoiled gem. Low, volcanic cliffs envelop the sparkling black sand lagoon below. Located at the end of Waiʻanapanapa Road off Hana Highway, this park offers a wide range of scenic views, tropical hikes, and tons of unique recreation opportunities. Those looking for solitude and respite from the day-to-day grind of modern life are sure to enjoy this secluded campground.

    Waianapanapa is unique in that it’s one of the few places where you can enjoy dark, volcanic sand beaches. Even cooler, throughout the year the various tide pools throughout turn a deep shade of maroon-red. Scientists attribute this to the shrimp colonies that visit throughout the year. However, locals say it’s a due to a haunting from the blood of Popoaleae, a mythical princess who was killed by her husband Chief Kaakea in a cave nearby. We’ll let you decide what you want to believe.

    The campsites here are spacious enough to accomodate any tent or van dweller, but RVers aren’t going to find much accomodation here. The campground includes bathrooms, drinking water, an outdoor beach shower, fire pits, and tons of hikes nearby. In addition, the park grants access to shore fishing, snorkelling and scuba destinations nearby. Waianapanapa is also known for it’s natural blow-holes scattered through the park, and its world-class sea-bird watching.

    Waianapanapa State Park is massive, featuring over 122 acres of unspoiled volcanic terrain. However, parking is limited and the campground itself is on the small side. If you’re looking to camp here, reservations must be made at least 3 days prior to your check-in date. For HI residents, fees are $12 per night for up to 6 people, and $2 per night for every person thereafter. If you’re not a resident, fees are $18/night, with an addition charge of $3 per additional camper. Additionally, the park also offers Cabins on reservation at $60/night for residents, and $90/night for visitors. That being said, if you’re planning on camping in a cabin be aware there is a 2 day minimum. If you’re the type to procrastinate, definitely take care of your reservations in advance as they are strict about permitting here.

    The Kīpahulu campground is about 1/8 mile (.2km) south of the Kīpahulu Visitor Center. It overlooks ocean cliffs and is a short walk from ʻOheʻo Gulch. In the evenings, the sound of the ocean waves makes this a peaceful place. The campground has picnic tables, BBQ grills, and pit toilets. No water is available at Kīpahulu Campground; However, drinking water is available at the Kīpahulu Visitor Center restrooms. There are two general stores in the nearby town of Hāna (10 miles[16km] away) where you can purchase water and basic food supplies. Be prepared for rain, harsh sun, and mosquitoes.

    Hawaii Volcanoes National Park, Hawaii

    This epic property was built by a Dillingham daughter and her husband in the early 80's. Transformed into a bed & breakfast in the 90's it is now known as Hawaii Island Resort. This consecutive guest review award winning facility capitalized on the 2018 eruption by starting Hawaii Island Macadamia Nut Company. The orchard has been left alone for more than 20 years with only wild pigs and poultry to tend it. This remarkable property now boasts above organic macadamia nuts just beginning to reach global markets. You can buy cheaper macadamia nuts but you can't buy better nuts. We love to share our abundance with others and opening the property to travelers that love to camp seemed like a perfect addition to our current program. We have recently added glamping options, contact us for more information about that. We look forward to meeting you :) Please leave your pets at home when you visit, mahalo.

    Camp Olowalu

    Lovely, affordable accomodation

    I enjoyed my 5 night stay at a tent site here.  The grounds and facilities are well maintained and clean.  I used my site as a place to sleep and use the showers and bathroom facilities as needed.   I was gone by 8 am and back after sunset, going snorkeling, hiking and exploring the island.  I can't say what it would be like to lounge around all day at your site.  Some sights looked like they may have a lack of shade during the day.

    The beach is rocky and not one you'd likely want to spend your day on.  For the price and if you like camping (with hot showers, flush toilets and a sinks to wash your dishes) this is a great place to stay!

    We really enjoyed swimming in the pool under the Easter Island statue. The facilities were great, and the host was welcoming. Thanks for letting us stay on your beautiful property.

    The Hippocampus of Pueo Ridge

    Iron woods, tucked in, private

    We were disappointed as the campground didn't actually come through with a couple of things promised. One is that yoga classes are NOT available for campers. Another is that you have to provide your own toilet paper plus take your trash off site: very tricky when you're a visitor from off Island. The sites for tents were well built, but on the small side, so we had to go into Mcgiver mode to make our 2 man backpacking tent secure. It's windy so that's a critical feature for this location. I think if they added tie on bars on the side of the platforms that would probably fix the issue. It's a beautiful & secluded site, but I'm not sure how much experience the host has with actual real camping.

    Cabin rental. Great space!

    Two families, total of five people reserved a cabin. We had great space with one family in the bedroom (2 bunk beds) and the other using the bunk bed in the living space.   Unfortunately in the February rain we didn’t use the outdoor living space (covered deck) with picnic table as much as we would have liked but the kitchen had a long folding table that gives room for cooking, eating, and games.    A couch or other seating would have been nice.  It was very nice to have a full bathroom with hot water we showers. You do need to bring your own kitchen wares, bedding and towels.  

    The state park is beautiful to explore.  Definitely recommend an overnight stay over a day rip. The reservation is two night minimum unless there is a single day available.  A few of the cabins stayed empty despite full reservations prior so might be worth keeping an eye out for cancellations!

    Camp Olowalu

    Relaxing and clean camping spot!

    Our first time here we tent camped. Some of the sites seemed close together but we stayed at the end and had good privacy with the trade off of a long trip to the bathrooms.  The shared bathrooms are great! Clean, flush toilets, and running water.  Showers and dishwashing stations also a plus.  Free coffee for early risers.   You can see the beach from a few campsites.  Like most camping in Hawaii, bring your earplugs for the roosters.

    Hosmer Grove Campground — Haleakalā National Park

    Amazing price

    Im lucky enough that this is my second time staying here! Sad to say that both times there were empty sites even though they were all reserved.   There is a nice sheltered area for a wind break for dinner, potable water and pit toilets with hand washing station. Plan for chilly and windy weather in the winter and spring.  We stayed here once to save drive time to see the sunrise and the second time after hiking into the crater. Great location for both.  The short hike connected to the campground to see all the tree varieties is cool!

    Michelle could not have been more warm or welcoming, she made space for us at very short notice and could not do enough to look after us. We greatly appreciated the hot showers, towels, freshly brewed chai in the mornings and the beautiful scenery on her property. We cannot recommend Michelle enough!

    Cozy little gem!

    This place is a real gem on Maui. Secluded and very relaxed tent. The tent is on a platform that also serves as a little deck area to sit out and enjoy nature. The host was very friendly and helpful. Although rustic (which I enjoyed), I would highly recommend this place even if camping is not your thing. I will definitely stay here again if I ever come back to Maui

    A must visit . Don’t miss this place

    I found this listing on here but no way to book it instantly so I contacted the host directly . Kelly is super easy to communicate with and answers right away . The grounds for camping are on her resort property a couple acres behind it in fact , so there’s no visible building from tent sites . We absolutely loved the coqui singing at night and waking to an amazing array of bird’s singing. Kelly’s son Alex gives you a full walkthrough of the different types of tress to pick from , and a tour of the hotel property . There’s amazing facilities here including hot water in the showers. I can’t wait to come back here for a visit when we have more time !

    Ashley here with The Dyrt. We'd like to welcome your host, Ed. This special place is located in the forest. "Your site is steps away from Cannabis plants in various stages of growth. The site has a fine gravel floor with a solar panel roofing to protect you from the rain. This site is private and includes access to the outdoor bathroom which includes a hot shower and toilet."

    Beautiful

    Beautiful and peaceful campsite. The bathrooms and showers are super clean with warm running water. The outdoor amenities are a nice touch, I enjoyed playing with the disc golf and walking around the pond in the morning. The grassy road during the rain gets slippery if you don’t have 4 wheel but we never got stuck. I just hate how much we tore up the grass, made me feel bad every time we returned to camp. There are 4 dogs roaming around and for the most part they minded their own business. If you wake up early enough you can get a beautiful sunrise over a cattle farm. If we ever visit again, we’d love to stay here again.

    Nice campgrounds

    We stayed in a bungalow 7. After camping for 5 days we wanted to stay in a cabin. They do have hot water but it does run out, so try to get their earlier in the evening. They have electric plugs in the common area but I found it to be slow. Love the beach. There are stray cats and neighborhood dogs roaming around. There is an outdoor communal kitchen which is nice too. The host is a nice lady. Anahola Beach is lovely, I camped there too.

    One of a kind tropical escape from your day to day!

    This is such a naturally beautiful space. It is the perfect blend of picturesque nature and modern living without any of the day to day stress you’d find in other places. I’ve stayed several times and with each visit have been new upgrades and features. That being said this is not for the high maintenance. Jungle rains are a likely visitor. There is dirt - and peace. I love the outdoor shower which offers an unreal jungle shower experience. There was a some privacy, but not complete - be prepared to let your skin hit the air here. This is definitely a space for those who desire the simplicity of natural surroundings. The birds offer a cacophony of songs throughout the day. You will feel like you are in the middle of jungle heaven. The raised platform and tent are a step up, literally - and rain or shine this is a pretty sweet sleep setup. There are real mattresses and box springs and nice bedding- you will sleep unbelievably well, surrounded by so many shades of green. There is a cool gazebo for hanging out and talking story, BBQ grill, occasional bonfires when weather and conditions permit, lots of accessible destinations within range and a vibe so sweet you won’t want to leave. Macadamia nut trees scatter the property as do a wide range of flora and fauna. It’s a slice of heaven off the beaten path and unlike anything else you can find. I love spending time in this hidden gem.

    Nature at its best

    A unique location. Not for the trendy type, or those not wanting to rub elbows with the tourists, but those wanting privacy in bamboo forest, and macadamia trees for cool shades any time of the day. Beach and/or mountains less than 10 minutes away. Even though the site is ultra private all your shopping needs only minutes away as well. This site will not only make you happy while on Maui, but will leave you with memories of your trip to Hawaii.

    Sensational OLD Maui away from the crowded resorts, yet close to the beach and easy to get into town. Peaceful, tropical place to camp with Iao Mountain views. Easy to get to, very close to town and Whole Foods, but it seems like it's miles away. Lots of fruit and avocado trees everywhere, and quick easy hike up to a swimming hole.

    Waiʻanapanapa State Park Campground

    Not Your Average State Park!

    The road to Hana is a Maui Island must-do. And lots of people try to do it in a day -- sure it can be done, but why would you want to?  You’ll see so much and won’t take any of it in. So, slow down, take a minute between stops on your itinerary and stay a night or three in Wai’anapapa State Park.  We stayed 3 nights and wished we'd had 1 more.

    This park is known for its amazing black sand beach and offers visitors a 4-hour permit to experience the beach, the cove and coastal trail through rugged a’a lava fields. However, if you camp there your permit is good for the whole day and into the next to make the most of your visit. The park closes at sunset for all the other visitors, but campers can come and go and feel like you have the place all to yourself at sunrise just before the early permit holders arrive. 

    The current camping area isn’t much more than a big patch of grass with trees around the perimeter. Things might open up again once the pandemic regulations subside. A small area, perhaps 50 yards by 20 defines the camper van camping area and there are only 6 loosely defined sites. The bathrooms old and well used, showers are the outside beach variety with cold water and spectators. Potable water is available as well as a few Coke machines. 

    We had a problem charging up our electronics and assumed that we might find electricity at the state park just like back on the mainland -- we were wrong. There wasn’t an outlet to be found either in the park or even in the beach park down in Hana – this one got our hopes up because they have outlets which weren’t hot.  So bring your solar panels!  Plan ahead, or go to the coffee shop five miles back up the road.

    The road to the SP has at least 3 fruit stands and you’ll find another dozen on your way into Hana town. There is a small grocer as well as a handful of good restaurants associated with the local inns or guest houses. Gas is also easy to find in town as well as a small hospital. There is also a spouting hole in the lava which erupts with the incoming waves very close to the main beach -- this is fun for the whole family. Snorkeling is pretty good in the cove, especially on calmer days. Body surfing is fun when it’s less calm as this beach has a black sand break rather than reef. 

    Hiking in the park is totally worth it. The trail winds along the coastline high above the water, allowing amazing views of the lava structures, arches, tubes, coves and caves that the sea has shaped. The trail is strenuous and footing can be tricky in places, but the views, especially on a south eastern swell are amazing. Give yourself some time to check it out.



Guide to Hawaii

Camping in Hawaii offers a unique experience with stunning landscapes, diverse ecosystems, and a chance to connect with nature. Whether you're pitching a tent on a black sand beach or parking your RV near lush forests, there's something for everyone.

What to do

  • Explore the Beaches: Check out the black sand beach at Wai'anapanapa State Park Campground. One camper said, “The black sand beach is lovely... the high surf did let us see the blowhole in action - great fun to watch.”
  • Hiking: The Pipiwai Trail is a must-do. A reviewer mentioned, “The Pipiwai Trail hike is a must do on the Hana side- cannot go wrong with bamboo forests and a good waterfall.”
  • Snorkeling and Swimming: Many campgrounds, like Camp Olowalu, offer access to great snorkeling spots. One visitor noted, “You can rent surfboards, paddle boards, kayaks. Saw whales surfacing at sundown.”

What campers like

  • Natural Beauty: Campers rave about the scenery. One said, “The scenery here is absolutely stunning! Abutted next to the west-facing side of the crater, the magnificent color contrasts in the crater are on display at this campsite.”
  • Clean Facilities: Many campgrounds have well-maintained facilities. A camper at Camp Olowalu shared, “The shared bathrooms are great! Clean, flush toilets, and running water.”
  • Wildlife: Campers enjoy spotting unique wildlife. A reviewer at Holua Primitive Wilderness Campsite mentioned, “Watch for a NeNe, this bird is very rare and lives on at the top of this mountain.”

What you should know

  • Weather Variability: Be prepared for changing weather conditions. One camper at Hosmer Grove Campground said, “Night time temperatures can be in the 30’s and 40’s... plan ahead!”
  • Reservations: Some campgrounds require reservations, especially during peak seasons. A visitor at Kipahulu Campground noted, “This is a first come first serve campground... you can setup camp anywhere you can pitch a tent.”
  • Limited Amenities: Not all campgrounds have showers or electricity. A camper at Papalaua Wayside Park mentioned, “No fire access. No water access.”

Tips for camping with families

  • Choose Family-Friendly Campgrounds: Look for places like Spencer Beach Park, which is great for kids. One parent said, “Kids really enjoyed this location and we had no issues staying.”
  • Plan Activities: Make sure to have a mix of activities. A camper at Kalopa State Rec Area shared, “The Kalopa Nature Trail... takes you through all the gorgeous greenery and pretty trees.”
  • Bring Snacks and Drinks: Stock up on food before heading to remote campgrounds. A visitor at Kipahulu Campground advised, “Make sure to get all necessary food items in Hana as this is the last big town on the Hana Highway before the park.”

Tips from RVers

  • Check Road Conditions: Some roads can be tricky. A reviewer at Wai'anapanapa State Park Campground warned, “The road to Hana is a Maui Island must-do... be sure to drive at a pace that is comfortable for you.”
  • Look for RV-Friendly Campgrounds: Not all campgrounds accommodate RVs. A camper at Camp Olowalu noted, “The camper van area... was exactly like camping on the perimeter of a large parking lot.”
  • Bring Extra Supplies: Stock up on essentials, as some campgrounds have limited amenities. A visitor at Kipahulu Campground mentioned, “There’s no running water here, so come prepared with water jugs.”

Camping in Hawaii is an adventure filled with breathtaking views and unique experiences. Just remember to plan ahead and enjoy the beauty around you!
