How to Use This Honaunau-Napoopoo, Hawaii Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Honaunau-Napoopoo, Hawaii. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Hawaii or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Honaunau-Napoopoo.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Honaunau-Napoopoo, Hawaii

Honaunau-Napoopoo is a locality in Hawaii County, Hawaii, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,416. The population density is 24.5 people per km². Honaunau-Napoopoo is located at 19.4725°N, 155.8415°W. It observes the Hawaii Standard Time — no DST (Pacific/Honolulu) timezone. ZIP code: 96704.

Honaunau-Napoopoo manifests as a rugged expanse where the volcanic geology of the island meets the persistent, salt-heavy breath of the Pacific Ocean. It lies 55.4 miles west-southwest of Hilo, HI (from Hilo, HI: bearing 251°T), and is situated 8.6 miles south-southeast of Kahaluu-Keauhou. The landscape is defined by hardened flows of dark basalt that slope toward the sea, broken only by the verdant, tangled growth of the Hōnaunau Forest Reserve rising in the distance. To the east, the massive, brooding silhouette of Mauna Loa dominates the horizon, casting long, cooling shadows as the sun begins its descent. The air here holds a particular weight, smelling of damp earth and the saline spray that travels two miles inland from the coast, while the Ki‘ilae Watercourse carves a thin, seasonal scar through the otherwise unyielding rock. High above, the light at dusk turns the jagged terrain into a study of violet and charcoal, lending an ancient, immutable quality to the ground underfoot.

State Department of Land State Resource Management Area serves as the primary steward of this terrain, preserving the remnants of a shoreline deeply marked by the legacy of Polynesian voyaging and the sacred kuleana of its original inhabitants. Honaunau-Napoopoo exists in a quiet dialogue with its past, where the memory of taro lo'i and the quiet industry of early agriculture still linger in the way the land is arranged. The economy today is marked by a slower pace, favoring small-scale cultivation and the maintenance of a cultural landscape that resists the frantic pace of modern development. Residents often look toward the distant Kīpū Rock as a fixed point in the seascape, while the occasional traveler might find their way toward the inland stillness of Holokaalele Pond. Life here is governed by the trade winds and the slow, rhythmic cycle of the tides, ensuring that the character of the place remains as resilient and singular as the volcanic stone itself.

About This Honaunau-Napoopoo Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Honaunau-Napoopoo, Hawaii. Coordinates: 19.472511, -155.841489. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Honaunau-Napoopoo includes the ZIP code (96704), telephone area code (808), county seat of Hawaii County (Hilo), and school district assignment (Hawaii Department of Education).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
