"Camping is officially allowed only in campgrounds, however visitors and residents alike camp along any beach as long as there are no signs posted against camping. Camping on the beach is legal for fishing purposes, so put a fishing pole by the water and you're fine. No camping is allowed at Ahihi-Kina'u Natural Area Reserve, Honolua Bay Marine Reserve and Oneloa (Big Beach) state park."
--------
Camping is also available on the nearby islands of Lanai and Molokai each nine miles from Maui, with ferry service to each island from Maui.
The Molokai campsites are included below on the state and county web sites.
On Lanai there is only one official camping site, the Hulopoe Beach Park. The camping permit can be obtained from Castle & Cooke by calling their Lanai office at (808) 565-3319. The cost is $10 per night per person.
