2024 Map of Keanae

About this map

The Ke'anae Peninsula extends into the Pacific Ocean on the windward coast of Maui, anchoring a landscape where deep valleys and complex water systems define human settlement. This modern survey illustrates the coastal villages of Ke'anae and Wailua, where the historic Keanae Congregational Church and Saint Gabriels Catholic Church serve as local landmarks. The area is characterized by its dramatic hydrology, featuring numerous streams like Waikamoi Stream and Honomanu Stream that carve through the volcanic terrain toward the sea. The map reveals the intricate engineering of the Ko'olau Ditch and Manuel Luis Ditch, which redirect water along the mountain slopes. These systems, alongside the Ke'anae Arboretum, demonstrate the long-standing management of the island's natural resources and the preservation of its distinctive environmental character near Waiokilo Falls.
