Explore Manele, Hawaii, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Manele, 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 Manele.
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.

Manele reveals its character through the sheer, rugged contrast of volcanic cliffs meeting the relentless expanse of the Pacific Ocean. It lies 17.1 miles west-southwest of Lahaina, HI (from Lahaina, HI: bearing 238°T), and is situated 6.0 miles south of Lanai City. Salt-heavy trade winds scour the headlands, where the land drops abruptly into the turquoise tide, carving a jagged edge that defines the horizon. Beyond the immediate shoreline, the terrain rises toward the distant, shadowed heights of the Puhiʻelelū range, while the inland gullies like Koala Gulch harbor the quiet shadows of a landscape shaped by ancient geological fire. The light here at dusk possesses a peculiar, liquid quality, turning the obsidian-colored rock into a deep, bruised violet as the sun dips toward the water.
Manele serves as a sentinel of a deep, enduring heritage, where the stewardship of the land—the kuleana—remains a tangible force in the daily rhythm of the harbor. The local economy, once tethered to the expansive cycles of pineapple agriculture that defined the broader region, has shifted its focus toward the preservation of the delicate ecosystems protected within the Manele-Hulopoe Marine Life Conservation District. Just a short distance across the water, the solitary silhouette of Puʻupehe stands as a silent witness to a history of Polynesian voyaging that predates the modern docks. Life in Manele maintains a deliberate, measured pace, far removed from the clamor of industrial centers, leaving the visitor to contemplate the stillness that lingers long after the tide has retreated from the shore.

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.
