Your Hawaii Lifestyle Awaits: Kohala Coast

Welcome to the Kohala Coast, a breathtaking stretch of paradise on Hawaii’s Big Island. As your local Hawaii Realtor®, I know transitioning to island life can be exciting, but also raise questions. Fear not! This guide will equip you with insider tips to navigate your new Kohala Coast haven.

Embrace the Local Charm:

Finding the Perfect Ohana (Family): Hawaii’s close-knit communities are all about building relationships. Connect with local businesses and service providers. Many specialize in high-quality work at fair prices and become part of your extended ohana.
Farmer’s Markets: Immerse yourself in the vibrant local scene at weekly farmer’s markets. Stock up on fresh produce, exotic fruits, locally-crafted goods, and even interact with friendly vendors who’ll become familiar faces.

Hidden Gems Await:

Snorkeling Paradise: Venture beyond the main resorts. Discover secluded coves like Puako Bay or Kehoe Bay for pristine snorkeling experiences teeming with colorful fish and vibrant coral reefs.
Sunset Chasers: For breathtaking sunsets, head to Hapuna Beach State Park. Stretch out on the golden sand, witness the fiery sky, and soak in the pure magic of the Kohala Coast.

Foodie Delights:

Fine Dining with a View: Splurge at The Orchid at Mauna Lani for an unforgettable five-star dining experience with panoramic ocean views.
Local Grinds: Balance the extravagance with some down-home Hawaiian “grinds” (food). Try Tex Drive-In in Waimea for delicious and affordable local favorites like loco moco and plate lunches.

Essential Services:

Finding Reliable Contractors: A reputable Hawaii Realtor® can recommend trustworthy local contractors for maintenance, renovations, or landscaping needs. Look for those familiar with the specific requirements of island living.
Island Essentials: Stock up on sunscreen, insect repellent, and reef-safe sunscreen – all year-round necessities! Local stores like KTA Super Stores or Foodland Farms offer a wide selection.

Beyond the Kohala Coast:

Waimea Town: Venture further inland to charming Waimea Town. Explore art galleries, locally owned boutiques, and enjoy a leisurely lunch amidst the upcountry scenery.
Volcanoes National Park: The Big Island boasts a unique geological wonder – Volcanoes National Park. Witness the power of nature firsthand and explore active volcanic landscapes.

Living the Dream:

Owning real estate on the Kohala Coast isn’t just about the property; it’s about embracing the island lifestyle. With a little local knowledge, you can unlock the hidden gems, connect with the community, and truly experience the magic of Hawaii.
