Skaters in Hawi. Hawi is the most northern town. Wooden houses painted in bold colors transform you into an atmosphere of the seventies, when the town was a thriving place dedicated fully to the sugarcane. Big Island. Hawaii. USA. The small rural town of Hawi, Highway 270, North Kohala District, Hawaii USA. Spend a few hours browsing the peaceful haven of Hawi, North Kohala’s biggest little town, best known as the bicycle turnaround for the annual Ironman World Championship held every October. This historic town, set in the green northern tip of the island, was once the busy hub of North Kohala’s now defunct sugar industry. Today, Hawi is home to a handful of charming art galleries, boutiques and restaurants set in colorful and lively plantation buildings. You’ll find everything here from handmade jewelry and crafts to homemade fudge and 100% Kona coffee. The Bamboo Restaurant & Gallery was once voted best restaurant on Hawaii Island and is a great stop for a fresh island style meal. Beyond Hawi is the town of Kapaau, home of the original King Kamehameha I Statue. Continue driving east on Highway 270 and you’ll literally come to the end of the road at the stunning Pololu Valley Overlook. The incredible view overlooking the northeastern coastline will be the perfect way to end your journey through North Kohala.
