About Seaview
Tucked along the lower Puna coast of the Big Island, Seaview is a relaxed neighborhood known for its independent spirit and ocean views. Sitting right off the scenic Red Road near Kalapana, the community offers a quiet, rural lifestyle surrounded by rugged black lava fields and lush tropical greenery. It is a favorite spot for artists, retirees, and anyone looking to unplug and live closer to nature.
Life here centers on simple outdoor living, with many homes featuring open-air lanais, rain catchment systems, and solar setups. Neighbors often catch up at the local community parks or take in the ocean breeze along the bluffs, with unique spots like Kehena Beach just down the road. For daily essentials, the historic town of Pāhoa is about a fifteen-minute drive inland, offering grocery stores, cafes, and healthcare services before you return home to the peaceful coast.
