2024 Map of Makalawena

About this map

The Lava Flow of 1801 dominates the coastal topography of this North Kona region, illustrating the volcanic foundations of the Island of Hawai‘i. Along the shoreline, the map details a series of coves and points, including Kahoiawa Bay and Kikaua Point, which frame the modern developments at Kūki‘o. Inland, the landscape rises toward the cinder cone of Kuili, while the coast is marked by culturally significant sites like ‘Opae‘ula Pond and the extensive sands of Makalawena Beach. This survey records the intersection of geological history and aviation infrastructure, anchored by the Ellison Onizuka Kona International Airport at Keahole at the southern edge. Local transit is represented by recent residential corridors such as Maniniowali Dr and Alapii Kula Dr, which navigate the rugged terrain between the shore and the higher slopes of Kaiminani.
