About this experience

Pharmacies in Puako are the local prescription and over-the-counter medicine providers on the Big Island's Kohala Coast. These outlets serve residents and visitors in the small community of Puako, located between Waimea and Kailua-Kona. Stock typically includes sunburn relief, antihistamines, and basic first-aid supplies suited to a coastal climate.

What to expect

  • Most pharmacies in Puako operate limited weekday hours, often closing by 6 PM, with no Sunday service.
  • Prescription transfers from mainland US pharmacies are processed within one business day, requiring a valid photo ID.
  • Visitors can purchase reef-safe sunscreen, after-bite cream for sandflies, and oral rehydration salts without a prescription.
  • Each location has a small consultation counter where a licensed pharmacist reviews drug interactions for new prescriptions.
  • The nearest 24-hour pharmacy is in Kailua-Kona, a 30-minute drive south along Highway 19.
  • These outlets suit travellers with chronic conditions who need a refill during a stay in the Puako resort area.
