1982 Map of Keahole Point

About this map

The Lava Flow of 1801 dominates this coastal landscape along the North Kona District, where prehistoric cultural sites meet modern infrastructure. Ancient structures like the Hale o Lono Heiau and Ahuena Heiau stand near the shoreline, preserving the sacred architecture of the islands. The transition from traditional land use to modern development is visible in the layout of the Kalaoa Homesteads and Honokohau Homesteads, which are situated inland from the rugged volcanic coast. Significant maritime and industrial sites include the Honokohau Small Boat Harbor and the Natural Energy Laboratory (Univ of Hawaii) at Keahole Pt. The map also traces the Old Mamalahoa Trail, a historic transport route that parallels the coast through the lava fields, connecting the traditional fishponds like Kaloko Fishpond to the newer developments of the early 1980s.
