Is it Free to Enter the Hawaiian National Parks?

No, it is not free to enter all of the national parks in Hawaii. Some of the national parks in Hawaii charge entrance fees, while others do not. The entrance fees vary depending on the park and the type of pass you purchase.

For example, the entrance fee for Hawaii Volcanoes National Park is $30 per vehicle, $25 per motorcycle, and $15 per person for visitors arriving on foot or bicycle. This fee is valid for seven days and allows access to both Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and Pu’uhonua o Honaunau National Historical Park.

On the other hand, there is no entrance fee for Pu’ukohola Heiau National Historic Site or Kaloko-Honokohau National Historical Park. However, donations are welcome and can help support the maintenance and preservation of these important sites.

It’s important to note that there are also various passes and discounts available for visitors to the national parks in Hawaii, including annual passes, senior passes, and access passes for individuals with disabilities.

Overall, while entrance fees are required for some national parks in Hawaii, they help support the preservation and maintenance of these important natural and cultural sites for future generations to enjoy.
