About this map

The Mokapu Peninsula and the coastal community of Kailua anchor this 2017 survey of O‘ahu's windward coast. The peninsula is dominated by the Kaneohe Bay Marine Corps Air Station, a major military installation situated between Kāne‘ohe Bay and the open ocean. Notable geological formations include Ulupa‘u Crater and the distinctive Pyramid Rock at the northern tip.

Inland, the landscape transitions from the residential neighborhoods of Lanikai and Māla‘e to significant wetlands and ecological features. The Kawainui Marsh and Hamakua Marsh provide a stark contrast to the dense street networks of Kaneohe Station. This map also documents the coastal geography of Kailua Bay, including offshore landmarks like the Mokulua Islands and Popoi‘a Island, alongside the complex system of traditional fishpond areas such as Nu‘upia Pond and Halekou Pond.
