If you're in the market for a tropical waterfront property without prices in the stratosphere, Hamakua Coast Realty might be exactly what you're looking for. The Hamakua coast stretches 45 miles from Honoka'a in the North to Hilo in the South, and includes parts of the Hamakua and North and South Hilo and is on the northeastern waterfront portion of the Big Island of Hawaii.
Most of this land is fit for agriculture. Until recently, the crop was sugar. Now, the crops are diversified: papaya, orchid, ginger, eucalyptus, macadamia nut and coffee plantations abound. It is in the neighboring towns where daily necessities can be purchased. This is where old Hawaii still lives.
The topography of the Hamakua Coast is rugged: streams, cliffs, deep valleys and the occasional small beach dot the landscape. Rainfall is also a significant experience in this windward side of the Big Island. Popular tourist spots include Akaka Falls, the Hawaii Tropical Botanical Garden, a tropical rainforest that is part of Onomea Bay, the World Botanical Gardens with the Umauma Falls, Kolekole Beach Park, Honolii Beach Park, Kalopa State Park, Kolekole Beach Park, Kolekole Beach Park, Laupahoehoe Train Museum and Waipio Valley.
In 1991, practically all of the sugar cane corporations sold their Hamakua Coast real estate. Initially, it was the real estate moguls who purchased these parcels of lands. Recently, smaller parcels of these giant lands were sold to individuals. Small farms and homes on large lush lots are available. Hamakua Coast Realty is one of the few places in Hawaii where tropical acreage in large land parcels is still available.
While still highly rural, the Hamakua Coast is growing. The villages and towns of Wailea, Hakalua, Honomo, Pepe'ekeo, Laupahoehoe as well as Honoka'a still remain to be the population centers. A decade ago, Honoka'a was a depressed economic area, a plantation town that had just endured the closing of its sugar mill. At present, Honoka'a is home to more than 2200 people who enjoy its elevation as well as the mild weather it brings. More importantly, the town is enjoying a renaissance of sorts with restaurants, cafes, galleries and theatres all thriving.
