Malama Market

Last-chance fuel and supplies before heading into Ka'u District backcountry, with local plate lunches and Hawaiian snacks.

This local market sits at the junction where Highway 11 meets the access roads to Green Sand Beach and South Point. Inside you’ll find basic groceries, ice, propane exchange, plus a deli counter serving fresh poke bowls and local-style plate lunches. The owners are friendly and know the area well — ask about current road conditions before heading down to Ka Lae.

It’s the last reliable fuel stop before the long stretch through Ka’u Desert, so top off here if you’re planning backcountry exploration. The market stays open until 8 PM most days, but hours can vary during slow season.
