The Lapakahi State Historical Park is located 12.4 miles north of Kawaihae Harbor, and the Puukohola Heiau National Historic Site in the North Kohala District on the Big Island of Hawai'i and was established to preserve the historic ruins of an ancient Hawaiian fishing village in North Kohala.
Visitors to this 262-acre rugged coastal park can learn about traditional Hawaiian culture by taking a one-mile self-guided tour and exploring the partially restored remains of this ancient settlement.
Offshore from the park is the protected Lapakahi Marine Life Conservation District and to the north of the park is the Mahukona Beach Park.
