Makanalani Kids is a Christian based camp located on the North Shore of Kauai. We exist solely to host life-changing camps at no charge, camps specifically intended for youth who would otherwise not have the opportunity to experience such a camp. These camps are located in a stunning environment to show the beauty of God's creation and are always hosted for free in order to inspire our young visitors to leave with the seeds of change, knowing that life can be different.
Please note before you apply:
- During the Hawaiian School District Summer, Spring and Fall Break, we give priority to Hawaiian based groups that specifically serve youth.
- Due to rising demand from Hawaiian youth groups, there is a low likelihood of us accepting groups from the mainland that aren’t exclusively serving youth.
- If you are applying on behalf of a mainland youth group, your best chance of success is to first check the Hawaiian school holidays (online) and then choose dates outside of those holidays.
- As our mission is to invest into youth groups through camps and retreats, we do not offer any bookings for personal or family visits.
- We do not operate in the month of December. This allows extra time for essential
maintenance. It also allows our staff to enjoy time off with family and friends.
