Conservation Sites
Kaiwi Coast Mauka
The Kaiwi Coast Mauka Lands, encompassing two parcels filled with natural land, endemic plant habitats, and open spaces, represent a collaborative effort for cultural and historical preservation by Trust for Public Land, Livable Mauanalua Hui, State of Hawai'i DLNR Legacy Land and Conservation Program, and the City and County of Honolulu Clean Water and Natural Lands Program. In 2017, the city acquired a conservation easement to protect the 181.6 acres and complete the conservation of the 7-mile Kaiwi coastline that stretches from Kawaihoa (Portlock) to Makapuʻu.
