Hawai Place Names

Hawaiʻi Place NamesHawaiiana / reference "An excellent book for Hawaiʻi's people as well as visitors who want to gain a better understanding of and appreciation for our beaches." Esther Mookini, Hawaiian language scholar and author "John Clark relates fascinating facts and local lore that would otherwise be forgotten. This is local history at its best!" Carol Silva, Hawaiian historical researcher and educator "You never know the true meaning of a name unless you know the moʻolelo, or story, that goes with it." In this latest book, John Clark, author of the highly regarded "Beaches of Hawaiʻi" series, gives us the many captivating stories behind the hundreds of Hawaiʻi place names associated with the ocean—the names of shores, beaches, and other sites where people fish, swim, dive, surf, and paddle. Significant features and landmarks on or near shores, such as fishponds, monuments, shrines, reefs, and small islands, are also included. The names of surfing sites are the most numerous and among the most colorful: from the purely descriptive (Black Rock, Blue Hole) to the humorous (No Can Tell, Pray for Sex). Clark began gathering information for the "Beaches" series in 1972, and during the years that followed interviewed hundreds of informants, many of them native Hawaiians, and consulted dozens of Hawaiian reference books, newspapers, and maps. A significant amount of the oral history he collected was unrecorded and remained only in his notebooks and memory. Hawaiʻi Place Names: Shores, Beaches, and Surf Sites is the final product of those years of research, and like its popular predecessors, it benefits substantially from Clark's having spent a lifetime surfing and swimming Hawaiʻi's beaches. Presented in the same convenient format as Pukui, Elbert, and Mookini's Place Names of Hawaii, this rich compendium of information on Hawaiʻi's surf, shore, and beach sites will satisfy visitors and residents alike.

Aloha ʻia no ka huakaʻi mai ka hikina i Kumukahi i ka welona i Lehua, Hoʻi mai ka manaʻo i na moʻolelo o na pana o ke kai. Beloved is the journey from the sunrise at Kumukahi to the sunset at Lehua, Our thoughts return to the stories of the famous places of the sea. CONTENTS Preface ix ______________ Acknowledgments ______________ Glossary 1 xv ______________ References 401 ______________ PREFACE In 1966 the University of Hawaiʻi Press published the first edition of Place Names of Hawaiʻi. Written by Mary Kawena Pukui and Samuel H. Elbert, it contained 1,125 entries, all of which were place names in the Hawaiian language. In 1974 the press published the second edition by Pukui, Elbert, and Esther T. Moʻokini. It contained some four thousand entries, and this time it included place names in English and other languages. This edition, in the words of the authors, provided "a glossary of important place names in the State, including names of valleys, streams, mountains, land sections, surfing areas, towns, villages, and Honolulu streets and buildings." During the years that have followed its publication, the second edition of Place Names of Hawaiʻi has become a standard reference in the literature of Hawaiʻi. In May 1972, I began gathering information for a book that I had decided to write about Oʻahu's beaches. My idea was to identify every beach on the island and describe its physical characteristics, including its dangers, its use as a recreational resource, and its value as a historic and cultural site. As a result, the University of Hawaiʻi Press published The Beaches of Oʻahu in 1977, The Beaches of Maui County in 1980, Beaches of the Big Island in 1985, Beaches of Kauaʻi and Niʻihau in 1990, and Hawaiʻi's Best Beaches in 1999. My original idea for a book on Oʻahu's beaches evolved into the beaches of Hawaiʻi series that inventories and describes every beach in the Hawaiian Islands. During the course of writing these books, I interviewed hundreds of informants to gather information, many of whom were native Hawaiians. I soon realized that many of the place names I was collecting were not in standard references such as Place Names of Hawaiʻi and that much of the anecdotal information I was being given to describe the shores and beaches was not recorded. In an effort to preserve some of this information, I put as much as I thought appropriate into the beaches of Hawaiʻi books, but a significant amount still remained only in my notebooks and in my memory. I have always thought that the glossary approach in Place Names of Hawaiʻi is a good format for presenting and consolidating large amounts of diverse information, so in 1998 I asked the University of Hawaiʻi Press if they would be interested in a shores and beaches supplement to Place Names of Hawaiʻi. In it I proposed to include all of the information that I have gathered from researching the beaches of Hawaiʻi series and from spending a lifetime swimming and surfing on Hawaiʻi's beaches. They agreed, and the result is this volume, Hawaiʻi Place Names: Shores, Beaches, and Surf Sites. During the last century, more new place names were added to Hawaiʻi's collective body of place names than at any other time in the postcontact period—the period beginning in 1778, the year of Captain Cook's arrival. The twentieth century was a time of phenomenal growth in population and infrastructure in the Hawaiian Islands. Streets, subdivisions, homes, hotels, condominiums, office buildings, boat ramps, harbors, military bases, pineapple canneries, sugar mills, and myriad other structures built across the Islands made lasting marks on the land and gave us thousands of place names. Street names on the island of Oʻahu alone now number over seven thousand. All of these land-based names have been recorded in telephone books, maps, magazines, newspapers, construction plans, land sale contracts, and other similar documents. In addition, the use of computers and the development of the Internet have revolutionized record keeping and made records and names accessible to everyone. At the same time that Hawaiʻi experienced its explosive growth of population and infrastructure on land, an equally explosive growth took place in the ocean. The Hawaiian Islands offer almost every type of ocean recreation activity in the world, so new residents and visitors followed the Hawaiians into the ocean. Hawaiʻi saw the rise of swimming and the rebirth of surfing in the early 1900s, the development of outrigger canoe racing in the 1930s, the introduction of scuba diving and the rise of body-surfing during the 1950s, the international explosion of surfing in the 1960s with the introduction of mass-produced foam surf- boards, the rise of the spin-off sports of bodyboarding and wind-surfing in the 1970s, and the introduction of extreme, or tow-in, surfing and kite surfing in the 1990s. These activities and many more spawned an ocean recreation industry that is a significant source of revenue in the state and that has contributed thousands of new place names. The place names on our shores and beaches, however, have been largely unrecorded, historians having judged them colorful but ephemeral. It is true that many names of ocean recreation sites are short-lived, especially those introduced by commercial tour operators who may be in business only a short time. They introduce names that they believe will have commercial advertising value—names that will attract customers—and often only their company uses these names. During the past twenty-five years, for example, "turtle" names have proliferated, the assumption being that visitors want to swim with turtles when they snorkel and scuba dive. Yet in spite of the constant inundation of ephemeral and esoteric names, many place names on our shores and beaches have survived the test of time. They have passed from one generation to the next and from one user group to another. These are names that I have attempted to record. The 2,500 entries in this book are names that are associated with the ocean. They are the names of shores, the lands at the edge of the ocean; the names of beaches, the dynamic sites on the shores that are composed of loosely consolidated material such as sand, cinder, or pebbles; and of the names of sites on or near the shores and beaches where people practice recreational and subsistence activities such as beachcombing, bodyboarding, body-surfing, boating, fishing (pole, spear, surround net, and throw net), gathering (seaweed, sea cucumbers, sea anemone, shellfish, salt, and sea urchins), kayaking, paddling, sailing, scuba diving, skimming, snorkeling, surfing, swimming, waterskiing, and wind-surfing. The entries are also the names of significant features or landmarks on or near the shores such as fishponds, monuments, navigational lights, and shrines, in addition to significant sites off-shore such as buoys, channels, reefs, rocks, and small islands. Entries that include two or more sites with the same name are listed alphabetically by island, and if the sites with the same name are on the same island, they are listed alphabetically by district. Surfing sites, with over six hundred entries, comprise the largest single group of shore and beach place names. Surfers and other wave riders, including bodyboarders, bodysurfers, and windsurfers, are always looking for new, uncrowded sites, so many of the English entries reflect the sport and its culture as new sites are named. Surfers, like fishermen, name sites for the landmarks they use to triangulate their spots, typically a house or some other feature on the beach. Brown's, Horner's, Fujioka's, Kamisugi's, Paty's, and Ruddle's are sites that are or were off someone's home. Iron Bridge, Lighthouse, Pillboxes, Pinetrees, and Shipwrecks are sites named after features onshore. Other site names suggest the dangers of the sport, such as Gas Chambers, Impossibles, Insanities, Razors, and Suicides; describe wave characteristics, such as Infinities, Pipeline, Pounders, and Wrap Arounds; identify geographical features, such as Black Rock, Blue Hole, and Rocky Point; and show humor, such as Dog Bowls, No Can Tell, and Pray for Sex. During the 1980s, younger surfers began modifying many of the existing place names by shortening and pluralizing them. The trend continued through the 1990s, so many names today are abbreviated versions of former names, and almost all of them end with an s.

The beach park was dedicated in 1970. Lit., small weave [of a fishnet]. moʻolelo I was raised in Wainaku but spent a lot of time in Honoliʻi with my family there. We're related to the Kapahua family who lived close to the beach. The houses in the village went from the beach back under the bridge and across the river. The canoes were kept by the Kapahua's place, and that property had a spring that always had water. When there were droughts and the river dried up, everyone got their water from the spring. The fishermen went into Hilo Bay, but they also fished in the river for ʻōpae and ʻoʻopu nāwao and gathered wī. Honoliʻi was also known for its limu ʻeleʻele. Hōʻiʻo and ʻāweu taro grew up mauka. The taro leaves were excellent for cooking. The community was self-sufficient and lived off the land, the river, and the sea. Before World War II, though, the young people started leaving for the big cities. They wanted more than to just subsist. Then the 1946 tidal wave wiped everyone out and broke up the community. Elizabeth Beck, June 29, 1982 I was born and raised at Honoliʻi, and Honoliʻi does not mean "small harbor." For this name, hono means to weave līke a net or a hat or to patch. Liʻi means small, so the name means "small weave or small patch." ʻlliʻili Hele o Honoliʻi is a famous name of Honoliʻi's sands. It means the "traveling sands of Honoliʻi." The ʻiliʻili, the sand there, disappears after heavy flooding in the river and leaves only boulders on the shore, but it always returns. There are many strange stories of Honoliʻi, and many fishermen get spooked. Ka ʻoiʻo come through on the old trail, and where the kamani tree is on the outside point is a kolohe place, but Honoliʻi was good for ulua, mullet, and āholehole. The Hawaiians that lived at Honoliʻi moved out before World War II, and after the war only a few families remained. Lillian Paauhau, July 20, 1982 Honolua. 1. Bay, Honolua, Maui. One of six famous West Maui bays whose names begin with the word hono, or bay. Collectively they are known as Nā Honoapiʻilani, "the bays acquired by Piʻilani" (a chief). Honoapiʻilani is also the name of the West Maui coastal highway that connects the six bays.

On the north point of the bay it is one of the best winter surf sites in Hawaiʻi. Also known as The Bay.Lit., two bays or twin bays. moʻolelo My mother, Lucy Kuaana, and Richard Cooper Searle Jr. were married at Honolua July 30, 1905. This was my mother's second marriage, and from then on I was Lucy Kailipakalua Searle. We lived at Honolua, where Richard Cooper Searle Sr. was the first manager of Honolua Ranch from 1892 to 1912. I knew him as Grampa Searle, and he embraced me as his own grandchild. When Grampa Searle retired in 1912, David Fleming replaced him as the ranch manager and moved into the main ranch house. Fleming continued the cattle operation until it was phased out for pine and built himself a new house on the hill. His home was called Makaʻoiʻoi, which means "sharp-eyed." The interisland steamers called at Honolua once a month. The boat stood offshore and goods and people came in and out on lighters. The old pier was in the center of the bay where the ramp in now. Hides that were salted and stacked were shipped out with the coffee when the steamer left. The coffee mill was next to the ranch house, but the coffee fields were in Honokahua. My uncle Willy Searle ran the mill. The whole bay was grassy and open, not overgrown like it is now. My father often surround-netted akule in the bay. Everyone that helped was given a kaʻau of fish. My father would always ask if anyone had guests, and if they needed extra fish, he gave them what they needed. My wet nurse was a woman named Hulimai. She was also the caretaker of the heiau in the bay, which is now on two sides of the road. Whenever I came home on vacation from Sacred Hearts in Honolulu, my mother always took me to Hulimai's house. Hulimai would chant, and I would have to respond, "Eō," and draw out the final syllable. Hulimai set out the old-style fish basket traps off the right point of the bay near the white coral. She gathered ʻopihi and limu there, too. I believe one of the graves in the bay is hers.

Main entrance channel into Honolulu Harbor. The first non-Hawaiian to negotiate what was originally a narrow gap through the reef was Captain William Brown, who in 1794 sailed his schooner Jackall through the channel into the harbor. 3.

Established in 1869 at the harbor entrance and relocated to the top of Aloha Tower when it was built in 1926. Relocated again in 1975 to a 95-foot pole at Pier 2 when its light became indistinguishable from the lights of the high-rise buildings inland of Aloha Tower. Lit., protected bay. moʻolelo The village at Honolulu was on the high ground behind the concrete building that the Board of Forestry built as a storage shed for their equipment. There were many graves and house sites— the platforms were still in good shape—but they were all bulldozed by a landowner who leveled the area for house lots. Honolulu was used as a landing for ships, but not the inter-island steamers. Schooners stopped offshore periodically to pick up coconut, coffee, and dried ʻawa, but it wasn't one of their regular stops. McBride and McKeague owned the boats, and canoes were used as lighters. The coffee mill was above Koaʻe, a mauka village in the mango grove area. I used to live nearby at Halepuaʻa, and my wife's family was from Kahuwai. Before the shoreline sank in 1924, there was a black sand beach on the Makuʻu side of Honolulu and an ʻiliʻili beach on the Puʻu One side. After 1924, people moved out of the shoreline areas toward the forest line, and by the thirties and forties the younger generations just moved away. They were not interested in a subsistence lifestyle. Henry Auwae, July 19, 1982 Honomalino. Bay, beach, Honomalino, Hawaiʻi. Calcareous and detrital sand beach fronted by a shallow sandbar in the north corner of the bay.

The pocket beaches are separated by a wave-cut sea arch approximately 65 feet high and 200 feet wide, fronted by shallow sandbars, and backed by vegetated dunes. A waterfall on the sea cliffs falls into the backshore and runs through the arch. The surf site is a shorebreak on the sandbars. 2. Bay, southwest shore, Lānaʻi. Site of the Nānāhoa Islands. Lit., conch bay. Honopūʻe. Anchorage, bay, beach, valley, surf site, Hāmākua, Hawaiʻi. Honopūʻe Valley is one of s even isolated coastal valleys on the north side of Kohala Mountain.

The bay is used as an anchorage, and the surf site is on the east point of the bay. Lit., dune bay. moʻolelo, Besides "rape," puʻe also means two sheer things coming together. I feel that this is the meaning—the sheer cliffs, the high valley walls that are hugging each other. There is a legend . . . that says a chief there was eaten by a shark and that his spirit is still alive in the shark. If you wanted to go to Pololū, then you threw a ti leaf in the ocean.

Ruins of the wharf are on the shore. Sugar planters deepened the bay in the 1870s and completed the wharf in 1883, but the wharf fell into disuse in the 1940s as trucks began to replace ships to transport raw sugar. The tsunami of April 1, 1946, severely damaged the wharf and it was never used again.

Ruins of the former interisland steamer landing are on the shore of the beach park. Facilities include a ramp. Also known as Cooper Landing, Kupa Landing, Kauhakō Ramp. Lit., to satisfy thirst. Hoʻokipa. 1. Beach park, Pāʻia, Maui. Pocket beach of calcareous sand beach fronted by a reef shelf. Built in 1933, the park was made famous throughout Hawaiʻi by Alice Johnson, a resident of Kūʻau and a singer with the Royal Hawaiian Band. In 1937, Johnson wrote and popularized the song "Hoʻokipa Park Hula," now a hula standard. Originally a surf site, Hoʻokipa became the premier windsurf site on Maui's north shore in the 1970s when the sport moved to Maui from Oʻahu. Hoʻokipa is now regarded as a world-class site for windsurfing competition, especially wave jumping and surfing. 2. Surf site, windsurf site, Pāʻia, Maui. Hoʻokipa is the overall site name, and there are at least five individual sites off the beach park. From east to west they are: Pavilions, Middles, Green Tree, H-Poko's, and Lanes. The first two are primarily surf sites, and the last three are primarily windsurf sites. Lit., hospitality. moʻolelo In 1936 my family moved from Lower Pāʻia to Kūʻau. I was singing with the Royal Hawaiian Band, but in 1937 I left them to come home. One day my sister and I decided to walk over to the park. We were curious to see what it looked like. A friend of ours was the park keeper, and when we arrived, she had just finished her poi lunch and had fallen asleep under the hau trees. The peacefulness and beauty of the entire scene inspired me to write "Hoʻokipa Park Hula." The kids from Lower Pāʻia and Kūʻau were already surfing here, so I mentioned surfing in the song. The ʻ46 tidal wave destroyed the area and completely changed it. The wide beach and many of the hau trees were lost, and the high wall there today was built to prevent further damage. Alice Johnson, January 27, 1978 Hoʻolawa. Bay, fishing site, landing, Huelo, Maui. Small rocky bay and a former plantation landing. Ruins of a sugar mill are inland of the bay. Lit., make sufficient.

Albert Horner, a pioneer in Kauaʻi's pineapple industry, was the manager of Hawaiian Canneries Company from 1920 to 1953. The canning operation was started by his father in 1914 to process pineapple from the fields in Kapahi and Moloaʻa. In 1929, Horner built a twenty-room home on a 4-acre site inshore of the surf site. It remained a landmark on the shore until 1976, when Pauline and Mel Ventura purchased it.

Since then the point has been known as Hosaka Point, or simply Eddie Hosaka. Hosaka was the author and illustrator of Sport Fishing in Hawaiʻi, a book he published in 1944 that is still considered a standard reference on fish and fishing in Hawaiʻi. moʻolelo The area near Pōhue known as Eddie Hosaka or Hosaka Point is a good ulua grounds.

Severson and other California surfers living on the North Shore at that time knew the entire beach as Banzai Beach, but believed this popular surf site should have an appropriate Hawaiian name. Severson utilized the resources in his office but could not find any beach names in thc area, so he selected Pūpūkea, the name of the land division that includes the surf site. Discharged in 1958, Severson went on to produce six surfing movies and found Surfer Magazine. He continues to create his now internationally famous surf art from his home on Maui.

Puʻu Maile Home was a tuberculosis sanitarium that was first built in 1912 at the site of what is now the old terminal of the Hilo Airport. It was named for a nearby cinder cone called Puʻu Maile. During the 1930s the cinder cone was leveled to provide fill for the airport's runways. In 1939 a new facility, Puʻu Maile Hospital, was completed at the end of Kalanianaʻole Avenue adjacent to Lehia Park, and the old facility at the airport was demolished. The hospital remained at the end of the road until 1951, when it was relocated to the grounds of the Hilo Hospital. Nothing remains of the former building except its long concrete sea-wall at the edge of Lehia Park. Although the hospital has been gone since 1951, many Big Island residents still call the area Puʻu Maile. Lit., maile vine hill. moʻolelo Puʻu Maile was a large hill where the old airport is that was maybe 50 or 60 feet high and 100 by 200 feet. It was located where Slim Holt and Hertz have their lots. Puʻu Maile Hospital was there, but when construction of the airport started, it was relocated to Leleʻiwi. The old wooden hospital was leveled and burned, and the hill, Puʻu Maile, was leveled for runway fill. The hospital took its name along and that's how the name Puʻu Maile came to Leleʻiwi. The new buildings there were completed in 1939. When the ʻ46 wave struck, I was called within an hour after the destruction to open the road through Keaukaha to Puʻu Maile. The authorities wanted to evacuate the people on the shore and the patients in the hospital. I was a heavy equipment operator, so I took a D-8 bulldozer to do the job. One section of the road was washed out so badly that I had to pull some trucks with the dozer to get them through. People were still up in the trees, many of them half naked. There were bodies everywhere. Colonel Kupihea of the National Guard was in charge of the operation, so he had soldiers walk in front of me to clear the dead out of the way. Moses Serrao assisted me, too. At the hospital I had patients riding on the dozer, and we even tied stretchers down on the front of the ʻdozer. We made continuous trips until nine that night before we evacuated everyone out. Later we helped in the Waiākea area.

During periods of high surf, there are numerous— "thousands"—of surf sites, or "peaks," along this beach fronting Pāpalaua State Wayside Park. Hundreds of coral heads make up an extensive submerged reef offshore, creating the numerous surf sites. Also known as Pāpalaua State Wayside Park. Threes. Surf site, Waikīkī, Oʻahu. Threes is the third surf site from east to west on the reef that begins off the Sheraton Waikīkī Hotel and ends at the Kaiser Channel. The two surf sites that precede it are Populars and Paradise. During the late 1950s, young surfers from the Outrigger Canoe Club "discovered" the site and named it Number Threes. The club was then still in the center of Waikīkī Beach at the site of the Outrigger Waikīkī Hotel. Threes is an abbreviation of Number Threes. Also known as Number Threes. Three Sisters. Rocks, Ala Wai Channel, Oʻahu. Three limestone rocks on the shallow reef flat inshore of Ala Moana Bowls that mark the eastern edge of the channel for boaters. Three Stones.

Also known as Camp Erdman, Erdman, Rock-n-Roll Reef, Tigers. Tigers. 1. Surf site; Makaweli, Kauaʻi. Big-wave, second-reef site outside of Pākala, or Infinities. The site was first surfed in the early 1970s by Carlos Andrade, Kaleo Hookano, and Tiger Espere, and initially named for Espere. The name has been rein-forced over the years by numerous sightings here of tiger sharks. 2. Surf site, Mokulēʻia, Oʻahu. Same as Tiger Reef. moʻolelo Between 1970 and 1975, Tiger Espere lived for a while on the north shore of Kauaʻi. On a big southeast swell, early in the morning before the trades began to blow, we decided to paddle out on the Hanapēpē side of the point at Pākalā. The channel between Pipes, or Mahinauli, and the right off Pākalā Point was closing out on the sets. I paddled out to the left at Pipes, and Tiger paddled out to the right. He was riding the inside, which has this incredible boil toward the end of the wave, and doing his trademark arches, coming from behind the boil and pulling right up into it. A friend of mine from Waimea, Kaleo Hookano, then paddled out as I was crossing the channel to check out the rights. There were waves breaking about 200 yards or more outside and farther up the point from where Tiger was sitting. I asked Kaleo if he wanted to go check out the outside cloud break. He was game, so we went for it. When we got out there, the waves were breaking on a line of boils. They were peeling so perfectly but so fast that by the time you got to your feet, the wave would be reeling off too fast to get around the corner of the fall line and make it into the wall. We managed to get a couple of good long ones, but the best ones were going too fast to catch and make. Kaleo broke his board in half, and shortly after, I took a wipeout that broke all the buttons on my surf trunks. Luckily, I caught them around my ankles. No leashes those days, so we both made the long swim in, me with my trunks around my neck so I wouldn't lose them. Kaleo and I called the outer break "Clouds" because when you observe it breaking from Pākalā proper, it looks like a cloud break, but most of the younger kids call it "Tigers." The spot is now used mostly by tow-in guys, as they have the speed to get the wave at its very beginning and go all the way through. The name Tigers had also been perpetuated by many shark sightings there, most of which have been tiger sharks. The water on that side of the reef is very dirty more so than at Pākalā, and seems to attract them. One surfer sitting on his longboard was suddenly lifted out of the water and fell off his board. He had been lifted by a huge shark, which surfaced right under him. He fell on one side of the shark, and the board fell on the other side. He was eyeball-to-eyeball with the shark and said that the eyeball was about as big around as the bottom of a beer can. He has never been back there surfing. Last summer as I paddled back out to the point after riding a wave at Pākalā, a bodyboarder who was sitting right in the middle of a pack of about 1012 board surfers suddenly started paddling furiously toward the reef. He paddled right by me, eyes bugging out to the max, and when I questioned him as he blazed by, he said that a shark had just taken the swim fin off his foot. Luckily, he didn't lose his foot. Carlos Andrade, October 15, 2000 Tiny Bubbles. Surf site, Kailua, Oʻahu. Off the northwest end of Lanikai Beach fronting the home of island entertainer Do Ho. "Tiny Bubbles" has been Ho's signature song since he first introduced it in 1965 and is the name of the surf site off his family home. The name is a play on words because breaking waves generate foam, or tiny bubbles, as does the wine in Ho's song. One of several sites also known as Middle Reef. Toes. Surf site, windsurf site, Niu, Oʻahu. In 1962, veteran surfer and Triple Crown of Surfing producer Randy Rarick lived on the beach directly inshore of the site. He and his neighbors were the first to discover that the waves on the shallow reef here could be ridden and that they were good for nose riding. They called the site Toes Reef after a then popular surfing phrase, "Toes on the Nose." The name is now usually shortened to Toes. At high tide, windsurfers use the channel on the west side of the site to access the open ocean and to surf the lefts here. Also known as Toes Reef. moʻolelo In 1962, my family moved from Kaimukī to a house on the beach at Niu Valley. It was the first house on the Koko Head side of what is now Kawaikuʻi Beach Park. Toes was straight out from the house, but we didn't think you could surf it because the reef is so shallow, especially at low tide. So for the first year we lived there, I walked a halfmile down the beach and surfed ʻĀina Haina. But one day in 1963 I was standing there watching it and I thought, "You know, that looks pretty surfable." So I started surfing it with the Value brothers, Rick and 2000 Toes Reef. Haleʻiwa.
