1967 Map of Kauai

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Kauai and its neighboring islands Niihau Island and Kaula Island are detailed here during a period of mid-century development. While the coastal lowlands show a string of established sugar and plantation towns like Kilauea, Kapaa, and Koloa, the interior is dominated by vast conservation areas including the Na Pali-Kona Forest Reserve and Halelea Forest Reserve. The map illustrates the infrastructure of the era, from the Lihue Airport to maritime aids such as the Nawiliwili Bay Light and Puolo Point Light. On Niihau Island, isolated settlements like Nonopapa and Kiekie are shown alongside Halulu Lake, providing a rare look at the layout of the Forbidden Isle before modern changes. Military footprints are also evident at Barking Sands Military Reservation and Papaholahola Military Reservation, reflecting the strategic importance of the archipelago.
