About this map

Kamehameha I Birthplace and the Mookini Heiau anchor this coastal survey of the North Kohala District, where the Big Island’s northwestern shoreline meets the Alenuihaha Channel. The landscape is defined by traditional land divisions and coastal sites such as Mahukona, formerly a significant shipping port, and Honoipu Landing. The map details the transition from historical Hawaiian landmarks to mid-20th-century infrastructure, including the Upolu Point Loran Station Coast Guard Res and several Water Tank installations supporting the arid coastal environment. Coastal features like Mahukona Harbor and Umiwai Bay are punctuated by numerous points such as Kauilii Pt and Makaohule Pt. Moving inland, the map labels historical land units like Puuepa 1 and Kukuipahu, while recreational areas like Mahukona Beach Park and Kapaa Beach Park indicate the area's development for public use by the early 1980s.
