About this map

Kaniku Lava Flow dominates this coastal landscape along Kawaihae Bay, revealing the raw volcanic character of the South Kohala District in the mid-1950s. The small coastal settlement of Puako sits at the edge of the lava, near numerous protected inlets and fishponds that define this section of the shore. Traditional Hawaiian land management is evident in the cluster of ponds including Keanapou Fishpond, Waipuhi Fishpond, and Hopeala Fishpond located near Lahuipuaa.
