Apua Point is about a 6.6-mile hike from the Puna Coast trailhead in the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Located at the Pu‘u Loa Petroglyphs, the area is found on the park’s south-facing shore.

Apua Point features many coconut trees that campers may pitch their tent underneath, and there are some tent sites with stone walls to provide shelter from the wind. The campsites can be reached by way of two trailheads, the Pu?u Loa Petroglyphs and Mau Loa o Mauna Ulu. Backpacking campers choosing Apua Point need to be physically fit and adequately equipped, and have experience with wilderness trekking.
