Ke'anae (Road to Hana)

Ke`anae Peninsula, Road to Hana, Mile 17. See also Aerial images of Keana'e >>

First view at the Ke`anae Peninsula from the Hana Road is past mile marker 12 in the vicinity of the Kaumahina State Wayside. The Peninsula appears from behind two magnificent bays: Honomanau and Nua`ailua. Behind Ke`anae is the Pauwalu Point with a pictoresque Moku Mana Islet. The windy Hana Road enters two valleys before it returns toward the Ocean for another even closer look at Ke`anae.

Around mile 16.6 a small road forks from the Hana Highway toward the Ocean. If you have the time, take it! It leads toward the village of Ke`anae located on one of the most recent volcanic additions to Maui. It is romantic and beautiful there, but living on low elevation has its risks: In 1946 big Tsunami Wave wiped out the village. Only the `Ihi`ihi o lehowa o na Kaua Church survived the cataclysm.
