How to Use This Maunawili, Hawaii Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Maunawili, 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 Maunawili.

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 Maunawili, Hawaii

Maunawili is a locality in Honolulu County, Hawaii, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,026. The population density is 427.9 people per km². Maunawili is located at 21.3673°N, 157.7668°W. It observes the Hawaii Standard Time — no DST (Pacific/Honolulu) timezone. ZIP code: 96734.

Maunawili stretches across the verdant floor of Maunawili Valley, where the persistent flow of Maunawili Stream carves a cooling path through the dense, emerald foliage. It lies 3.0 miles southwest of Kailua, HI (from Kailua, HI: bearing 216°T), and is situated 7.2 miles northeast of Honolulu. This landscape is defined by the heavy, humid breath of the trade winds and the ever-present shadow of the distant Koolau Range, which looms on the horizon like a jagged, protective wall. Within the boundaries of the State Department of Land State Resource Management Area, the earth feels ancient and damp, holding the scent of crushed ginger and wet volcanic soil. The quality of light here shifts rapidly, filtering through the canopy to create transient pools of gold that vanish as quickly as the mist rising from the hills toward the high, gray ridges.

History lingers in the remnants of old taro lo'i, where the quiet industry of early cultivators once shaped the land, long before the modern transition to residential life and small-scale agriculture. Maunawili retains a deep, hushed character, distinct from the busier hubs nearby, even as the nearby Pacific Ocean exerts its influence on the damp, salt-kissed atmosphere. While the distant Waipuhia Falls tumble down the slopes three miles away and the waters of Ka‘elepulu Pond hold the stillness of the lowlands, the rhythm of the day is dictated by the slow cycles of the rain and the sun. Residents move with a quiet kuleana toward this terrain, walking paths that feel far removed from the Manoa Falls Trail or the distant, rocky silhouette of Moku Moʻo, finding a grounded peace in the simple, persistent vitality of the valley.

About This Maunawili Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Maunawili, Hawaii. Coordinates: 21.367291, -157.766823. 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 Maunawili includes the ZIP code (96734), telephone area code (808), county seat of Honolulu County (Honolulu), 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.
