1959 Map of Makalawena

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The Lava Flow of 1801 dominates this arid coastal landscape along the North Kona District, where hardened volcanic fields meet the Pacific Ocean. This survey reveals a sparsely populated shoreline defined by a series of bays including Kukio Bay, Kua Bay, and Makalawena Bay. Small settlements like Mahaiula and Kukio sit near the coast, connected primarily by a network of foot trails and jeep trails that navigate the complex geology of the Makalawena and Awakee lands.
