About the Business
Upolu Airport, located at Upolu Point Road in Hawi, Hawaii, is a small general aviation airport situated 3 miles northwest of Hawi. Covering 82 acres, the airport features one runway, 7-25, measuring 3,800 feet x 75 feet in length. Upolu Airport, also known as Suiter Field in the early days of aviation in Hawaii, served as an emergency stop for Inter-Island Airways on its route to Hilo and provided air service to the district of Kohala. Originally maintained by the U.S. Signal Corps, the airport received funding from FERA and WPA prior to 1937 for improvements and runway extensions. Today, Upolu Airport does not offer any aviation services but remains an important historical site in Hawaii's aviation history.
Reviews
"What an amazing location to fly out of! Plus you're pretty much always going to have some crosswinds to practice with. Definitely a dream destination to fly from for me."
"Tip of the island! Gorgeous spot."
"We just drove down here to check out the site. There was nothing going on. But we really enjoyed the fantastic view over to Maui and the scenery out there. Wind, the ocean and unbeatable view. Definitely a spot to stop by."
"Kind of hard to find especially when you're not a local. But, the skydive was worth the drive and it was a beautiful view. Felt confident in my guys abilities and would do it again in a heartbeat. I do wish they had more than a porta potty though."
"Being a licensed pilot for 34 years I can not resist small airports. Had a good conversation with the skydivers who were repacking their chutes. If you have the time, this is a good place to jump out of a good airplane."
