Hawaii Kai at a Glance
Hawaii Kai, located on Oahu’s south shore, is the largest
of several residential communities on the eastern end of
the island. The town was the brainchild of the billionaire
industrialist Henry J. Kaiser, who developed an area of
kiawe flatland and a shallow fishpond into an affluent suburb.
Starting around 1959, the Hawaii Kai or Koko Marina was
dredged from the pond. Several neighborhoods now extend
back into several valleys and up the mountain ridges.
Attractions include the Koko Marina Center, located on the
corner of Kalanianaole Highway and Lunalilo Home Road. Here
you will find many shops, restaurants, water sports activities
and a large movie theater. It is located directly on the
marina and features a nice atmosphere. You can dine right
next to anchored boats and enjoy views of the water and
the green mountains in the background.
