The North Kohala Real Estate Update for Q1 2022 is for the majestic area located at the northern tip of the Big Island of Hawaii and the home to the two small towns of Hawi and Kapa’au. Hawi is most famous for being the turnaround point for the bicycle portion of the annual 
Ironman World Championship held in October, and its charming downtown area contains many small shops, and restaurants, including the famous Bamboo Restaurant. Hawi is also the 2nd Office location for Hawaii Luxury Real Estate.
The other small town, Kapaa’u, also contains a small downtown area with assorted shops and cafes and is home to the original King Kamehameha I Statue. A little farther south down the coast is where the gated, upscale communities of Kohala Ranch, Kohala By-the-Sea and Kohala Waterfront are located.
North Kohala contains miles of pastoral, undeveloped land, as well as a variety of beautiful homes, from small starter homes to large estates, many with stunning ocean views. The gated communities of Kohala Ranch 
contain many luxury homes with large lots, as well as many acreages lots where you can build your own Hawaiian dream home. The most alluring character of the Kohala Ranch area is that virtually every home and lot feature panoramic ocean views.
