Kaaawa, Hawaii
Criminal Record Search
Kaaawa is a
small community and census-designated place
(CDP) located in the windward district of
Koolauloa, City & County of Honolulu on the
Island of Oahu, Hawaii. As of the 2000
Census, the total population for Kaaawa was
1,324. In Hawaiian, kaʻaʻawa means "the
wrasse (fish)". The word always delights
visitors who stumble on pronouncing three as
in a row. In Hawaiian spelling (Kaaawa), it
is seen that each a is pronounced separately
and distinctly, set apart by the two glottal
stops (i.e., /kaaaa/).
Kaaawa is north of Kāneohe Bay (north of
Kaōio Point, also Kalaeokaōio), and the
Pacific Ocean shore here is fronted by a
broad fringing reef with a narrow, but quite
inviting beach (Kanenelu Beach, Kalaeōio
Beach Park, and Kaaawa Beach Park). The
around-the-island-highway (Kamehameha
Highway, State Rte. 83) and the houses and
other buildings comprising the town, are
confined to a relatively narrow belt along
the coast. However, a long valley extends
inland. Kaaawa Valley is part of Kualoa
Ranch and used for various tourist
activities as well as filming. Major films
incorporating significant views of the
valley include George of the Jungle and
Jurassic Park.
The U.S. postal code for Kaaawa is 96730.
