Kona Sea Salt

Hawaii Island’s only Salt Farm. Located on a beautiful 7 acre oceanfront site, we hand harvest Haw But the salt isn’t ready yet!
(35)

Kona Sea Salt is located on the Kona coast of Hawaii, the “Big Island” in the Hawaiian island chain. We pride ourselves in producing a renowned sea salt, which continues to earn accolades from top executive chefs and fitness experts for its delicate flavor and rich trace mineral content. Kona Sea Salt is entirely hand tended from the moment our deep seawater arrives on site. After about four weeks

of unhurried evaporation within our closed drying systems, the bright Hawaiian sun transforms the seawater into our characteristic, pure white Kona Sea Salt crystals. The crystals are gently scooped into buckets and wheeled to covered wooden hoppers. Here, the remaining moisture is drained from the salt creating a concentrated brine called nigari*, or bitterns. Once it’s fully dried, the salt is patiently inspected to exacting standards, then packaged for sale. Kona Sea Salt destined for our retail product line is oven-dried on site in accordance with State of Hawaii health requirements, then labeled and packaged by hand for shipping. Whether it's a single grinder, or full pallets shipped by sea, we make certain that every order of Kona Sea Salt arrives as quickly and affordably as possible from our Kona production site. We are not open to the public, but sell our goods online. Please visit our website to learn more about our products or make a purchase today!

Candee, who kindly helps us on weekends hosting our salt farm tours on salt’s role in world history.

Please come see us at the Mana Up Showcase event on November 11 at Bloomingdale’s Honolulu. This is our special offer this year, our Deep Ocean Magnesium and Refill Bottle.

One thing that @ironmantri athletes have in common with all of us is the need for magnesium. Whether ingested or used topically, high quality magnesium helps with inflammation, muscle soreness, blood circulation, metabolism, and more! Ironman triathlete and Kona resident Michael Kemp tells us why he loves using our liquid magnesium products and deep sea foot soaks to aid his recovery routine after a long day of training. @swim_mike_run_aloha is raising money for the Ironman Foundation, an organization dedicated to giving back to the communities that host these events. And we’re here to help! We will be donating a portion of our proceeds from all tours, foot soaks, and retail purchases to help Mike’s fundraiser and give more back to the Kona community we love so dearly. Check the link in our bio if you would like to contribute to Mike’s fundraiser, and we hope to “sea” you at the farm! 👋 #ironman #seasalt #konaseasalt #konasaltfarm #saltyallday #thingstodoinkona #luckywelivehawaii #ironmanfoundation

Whether you’re an @ironmantri athlete or just someone living an active lifestyle, electrolyte intake is important.

Harvest time! After weeks of solar evaporation and crystalization, our amazing harvest team Ellie and Mason set out to collect the results of playing the waiting game. Once the sea salt is collected it is placed in a series of hoppers to help it finishing draining. If you’re at the salt farm on a tour and see them out harvesting, give them some love for all their hard work they do to bring us the purest, lowest-sodium deep sea salt ❤️ #seasalt #konaseasalt #hawaiianseasalt #saltfarm #saltyallday #thingstodoinkona #bigislandtours #konatours #konasaltfarm #kona

Ipolani tells us how she likes to use our popular garlic sea salt 🧄🌊 We get it. With so many tasty flavors, it’s hard to know what to get. So, come try them out for yourself! We have salt tastings every day at our salt farm for those curious to sample our selection, conveniently located next to the Kona airport. Take in the scenic views on our farm, tour our salt making facility, and try put pur deep sea foot soak! . . . . . #seasalt #konaseasalt #hawaiianseasalt #saltfarm #luckywelivehawaii #saltyallday #seasaltsofhawaii #thingstodoinkona #bigislandtours #konatours

Some of our wonderful guests shared with us their thoughts on our deep sea foot soak while talking story after a farm tour. The consensus was in: nothing beats a good cold soak on a hot Hawaiian day! Mahalo nui to everyone for sharing your experiences with us. If you’re looking to cool off this summer, come see us at our salt farm any day of the week, where you can soak in peace and paradise 🌊 . . . . . #konaseasalt #konasaltfarm #saltyallday #footsoak #magnesium #konatours #thingstodoinkona #saltlove

Fresh batch of sea salt coming in hot! This part of the harvesting process comes after weeks of patience. Since we use solar evaporation to dry our salt, we must allow Mother Nature to do her thing. And you know what they say, good things take time 😉 . . . . . #konaseasalt #seasalt #hawaiianseasalt #konasaltfarm #luckywelivehawaii #saltyallday #konatours

Announcement from Nainoa Thompson of the Polynesian Voyaging Society on the decision to bring Hokulea back home in the wake of the Lahaina tragedy and also in concern of climate unpredictability, a heated ocean providing fuel for large storms. This is a pause and the Moananuiakea Voyage will eventually continue at a future time.
