Hawi Real Estate
About Hawi
Tucked way up at the north end of the big Island is the darling little town of Hawi. Pronounced Ha-Vee, Hawi is home to about 1200 year-round residents but is known for its touristy shops, fantastic restaurants, and fun coffee shops. Hawi is accessible along Highway 270 which runs north and south up the Kohala Coast and down the eastern side of the island. It’s become a popular tourist destination in recent years due to its unique shops and restaurants but, the scenery is really what makes Hawi a fantastic destination. Within the fertile streams of North Kohala, Hawi is excellent for growing taro, bananas, and are native sweet potatoes. But today, this diversified little town has shifted into an artistic enclave. There are organic food markets, shopping, fabulous restaurants, and some of the most beautiful scenery on the island in nearby Pololu Valley.
