Wahi Nanea Place of Relaxation

7 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents2 acres · Kula, Maui
The property is located on Maui island in the Kula district on the drier side of Haleakala. In days before western contact the area was heavily forested with native plants and trees and rainfall was abundant. The native Hawaiian grew bananas, taro and sweet potato. After Western contact businessmen mostly from the United States developed huge tracts of land for ranching and farming which cleared the native forests and destroyed the eco system from the mountain to the sea. Many of the Hawaiian people moved away nearer to the towns and immigrant Chinese laborers from the ranches and plantations moved in. The Chinese brought in the Wattle tree to plant for firewood as these trees grew very fast. These are the majority of the trees that you see today. As part of the Chinese immigration, the founder of modern China, Sun Yat Sen lived here for a time and planned his revolution to overthrow the last Chinese Dynasty. There is a park dedicated to him nearby.We have picnic tables a propane grill, a fire pit and a covered gazebo that is shared with 3 cabins This site is located at the 2800 ft altitude and the temperature at night can range from mid 50 to mid 60 degrees F. If you are planning to go to Haleakala, we are about 45 -60 minutes to the summit. We are also on the south side approach to Hana. There is a great restaurant for breakfast and lunch about 10 minutes away in Keokea town called Grandma's Coffee house.

Ocean View Cabanas

8 sites · Lodging64 acres · Honoka'a, Hawaii
Big Island Farms was the inspiration of its founder Gordon Goff, who came to the Big Island of Hawaii in 1989 in pursuit of a utopian dream to live holistically off the land in a tropical paradise. Over the subsequent 28 years, he established the Hamakua Ecology Center and then, in the mid 90’s, moved into tropical food forest farming which led to the development of an agricultural educational program focused on the fundamentals of permaculture and deep ecology. Throughout this period Goff built a team of like-minded, hard-working individuals who began creating a diversified organic farm and orchard by planting, propagating and nurturing tropical super foods such as Macadamia Nuts, Dwarf Coconuts, and a diverse range of tropical fruits, herbs, and medicinals alongside traditional Hawaiian crops and market gardens. Working closely with his son Alexander Goff and life partner Annick Dauphinais (who are co-founders of BIF), they have developed over 64 acres, planted in dense orchards and gardens. Big Island Farms is a thriving agricultural enterprise with a long-term goal to provide super mineralized, nutritionally superior organic products grown and processed on site to ensure the highest quality of nutritional value to the local and global market.Big Island Farms hosts many varieties of gardens. Currently, we have community market gardens, medicinal gardens, arid climate gardens, and permaculture food forests.

Camping near Kihei guide

Kihei is like a Hawaii postcard come to life. Turquoise seas lap at white-sand beaches, and palm trees frame jungle-covered hills. A short drive away, you can surf Lahina or hike Haleakala National Park. Camping is the perfect way to experience Kihei and stay close to the action. For the closest West Maui camping sites, head to Papalaua Beach Park. Sleep on the sand next to the ocean; many spots are shaded for comfort. Or, hop on the Hana Highway and camp at Kanaha Beach Park near Kahului. Be sure to get a permit before tent camping at one of Maui’s beach parks. At Waiʻanapanapa State Park, choose from cabins and sites with picnic tables. Here, you can go birding, hike the Hawaiian coast, or fish in the sea just steps from camp. Inside Haleakala National Park, hike to one of two backcountry campgrounds. The park also has two drive-up campgrounds: Hosmer Grove and Kipahulu. The best part of camping near Kihei is the weather. Temperatures tend to stay in the 70s and 80s for most of the year. Bring rain gear and light layers for higher-elevation camping.

Hipcamp is created with ❤️ and hope for our future.
