Quality real estate services on the Big Island of Hawaii

South Point, Kau District
Pahala, Hawaii Zip Code 96777	Naalehu, Hawaii Zip Code 96772

Located on the South side of the island in the Kau District, Naalehu and Pahala are good communities with limited services available. There are some shops, gas stations, and small grocery stores. Naalehu has a few cafes, hardware store and other small businesses. Pahala does have a hospital as well. Life in this area is slow and peaceful. This area could be one of the best retirement value considerations the Big Island can offer.

South Point fishing is some of the best in the world. Fishing from the shoreline with the right techniques can land very large deep sea fish. This is also the southern most point in the United States. This photo show the boat lifts used to lower boats over the cliff.

The real estate market in Pahala Naalehu South Point is less expensive compared to the rest of the island. The cost of living is very affordable. The area is very popular because of the cooler temperatures, cost, and peaceful living. The availability of property is good. The prices are low and there is plenty to buy.

The rainfall is average for the island and much of the land is used for cattle, orchards, or old sugar cane land. The air quality in Naalehu and Pahala can be voggy (volcano fog) if the wind blows to the southwest but the winds are usually strong and carry the wind over or around the area.

This area is very close to the Kilauea volcano and rests along the south slope of Mauna Loa. Mauna Loa is the second highest mountain on the island and is not an active volcano at this time. There have been eruptions in the last century on Mauna Loa but Hawaiian volcanoes characteristically erupt often and relatively are small eruptions compared to most volcanoes in the Pacific rim.
