Discover 2.93 acres of almost oceanfront vacant land in the Waa Waa subdivision on Hawaiʻi Island. A narrow strip of state land lies between the parcel boundary and the ocean, offering close proximity to the coastline without direct ocean frontage. The property sits along paved Government Beach Road and includes a gated driveway and small house pad, providing an established entry and useful starting point for future plans. This is an off grid area, so future building plans will need to account for independent utility systems. Water catchment and solar power will be necessary. The parcel is also partially in Conservation. Buyers should independently verify permitted uses, building requirements, setbacks, wastewater options, boundaries, and other development requirements with the appropriate agencies. The wooded acreage features hau, lauhala, ulu, mamaki, lauae fern, bird's nest ferns growing in the trees, other fern varieties, and vanilla orchid vines. This vegetation contributes to the property's tropical, wooded character. The property is located in front of the coastal area known as Mermaid Ponds, where multiple tide pools may be accessible when ocean conditions are calm. Shoreline conditions can change, so buyers should independently verify access and use appropriate caution. As the last parcel in the Waa Waa subdivision, one side adjoins a large neighboring land parcel. Buyers searching for off grid land, Puna vacant land, Waa Waa land for sale, or acreage near the ocean on Hawaiʻi Island --- consider this property that combines 2.93 acres, a gated driveway, paved road access, an existing house pad, coastal proximity, and established vegetation. The existing site improvements offer a practical foundation for future plans in this distinctive Puna coastal setting.

You're are minutes from great fishing spots and the "Mermaid ponds" - natural tide pools in the area. The drive down Old Government Beach Road towards the property is spectacular. You will pass under hundred-year-old mango trees mixed into the canopy of lush and verdant jungle. This is something few have the opportunity to see let alone live in. To the south, 15 minute drive down the newly rebuilt Highway 137, reopening in 2026, you can enjoy the Pohoiki area with its community park, and hot ponds. Further along the coast lies the iconic Kehena Black Sand Beach, where you can swim in the deep blue waters of the Pacific.
