What are some of the best campgrounds in Hawaii?

 

Just about any island in Hawaii will have outstanding camping — some may be harder to get to than others. But if you are up for an adventure, Hawaii will definitely deliver. Here are a few of the best camping spots in Hawaii for your next outdoor island adventure:

  • Na Pali State Park, Kauai, HI: This remote island camping spot in Kauai is only accessible after an 11-mile hike. If you aren't up for the full journey, there is a spot about halfway through the hike to camp as well.
  • Bellows Field Beach Park, Oahu, HI: This spot is a unique area to enjoy private camping on Oahu. During the week, it is a military training area, but during the weekends, it opens up for camping to residents of Hawaii. It's not often you can say you camped on a military training beach. Because it is so restricted, the views are incredible and the beach is pristine.
  • Ho'omaluhia Botanical Garden, Oahu, HI: Another amazing spot on Oahu is this gorgeous botanical garden. It is like staying on a tropical island - oh, wait you actually are! The Ko'olau Mountains are stunning when mist depends down into the valley.
  • Pala’au State Park, Molokai, HI: Molokai is a remote secluded island untouched by heavy tourist traffic. The camping in this area is primitive, quiet, and gorgeous. Take the trail through the ironwood forest to Kalaupapa Lookout with views 1,000 feet above Kalalupapa.
