2013 Map of Hanapepe

About this map

Sugar production and coastal navigation define this stretch of southern Kauai, where industrial infrastructure meets the Pacific. The agricultural legacy is anchored by the Olokele Mill and McBryde Mill, supported by a dense network of upland reservoirs like Kaawanui Reservoir and Waikai Reservoir. Settlement patterns reveal the era of plantation life, with a series of numbered camps including Camp Number Three and Camp Number Six clustered near the mills and streams. Along the shore, the maritime activity of Port Allen and the Port Allen Small Boat Harbor sits adjacent to the Port Allen Airport, while the Hanapēpē Light at Puolo Point guides vessels into the bay. From the residential streets of Hanapēpē Heights to the historic Pākalā Village, the landscape reflects a long history of water management, evidenced by the Koula Ditch Tunnel and numerous gulches channeling water toward the coast.
