The Hamakua Coast of the Island of Hawai'i is defined here by a series of deep gulches and coastal settlements that once anchored the region's sugar industry. Modern routes like the Hawaii Belt Rd parallel the winding Old Mamalahoa Hwy, connecting communities from Honomu in the north down to Wainaku on the edge of Hilo Bay. The industrial legacy is anchored by the Pepe'ekeo Mill near Pepe'ekeo Point, while cultural and genealogical history is preserved at the Immaculate Heart of Mary Catholic Cem and Alae Cem. Numerous streams, including the Hanawi Stream and Ka'ie'ie Stream, carve through the terrain toward distinctive coastal features like the Onomea Arch at Onomea Bay. Further inland, the map identifies the Mauna Kea Memorial Park and the spectacular Waiahi Falls along the Honoli'i Stream.
