About

On Hawaii (Big Island), Laupāhoehoe Lookout stands at 36-2281 Mamalahoa Hwy, Laupahoehoe, HI 96764, United States, on the island's northeastern coast. It is known for its coastal setting along the Hāmākua Coast, a stretch that draws travellers making the drive between Hilo and the northern towns. The lookout's position on the highway makes it a natural pause for anyone covering that route.

First-time visitors can expect a coastal viewpoint rather than an indoor attraction, with the surrounding area offering open views toward the water. Visitors give it a 4.4 out of 5 average from 270 reviews, a well-established record for a stop of this kind. Reaching it is easiest by car, since the highway runs directly past the site and connects it to Hilo, Waimea and the Kohala Coast. Kailua-Kona, Volcano, Puna, Captain Cook and Kona sit elsewhere on the island.

Photos and further information are available through the venue's website for anyone planning the drive. The lookout's Laupahoehoe setting places it along the same coastal corridor as the surrounding Hāmākua towns.

Hawaii has a warm tropical climate, and daytime temperatures change little between summer and winter, so the lookout is comfortable to visit year-round. Since no road or regular ferry links the Hawaiian islands, travel between them is by air. Lei garlands made from flowers or shells are given in Hawaii to mark greetings, birthdays and graduations.
