Honolulu Map

Look down at the bottom of this post to find great Honolulu map images.

Honolulu is the biggest city and state capital of the US state of Hawaii. Located on the island of Oahu, the city is a medium size one with 390,738 people. The metro area turns this into a major city of 953,207. But due to the huge numbers of tourists visiting Hawaii around the year, Honolulu is a much more bustling place than a lot of other cities of this size.

Honolulu has a tropical climate with warm weather year round, with slightly cooler and wetter winters, though sunshine is common throughout the year. In the winter moneths the temperature range is typically 18-27 degrees, while in the summer months, the range is typically 23-31 degrees. Not a lot of variation, though when it`s cloudy during the winter, with the sea breeze from the ocean, it`s not uncommon to feel a little chilly. But it`s still much better than being in New York or Toronto during the winter!

Kahoolawe Maps and Niihau maps

This entry deals with two islands in the Hawaiian archipelago, Kahoolawe and Niihau islands. I decided to put them both into one entry, because neither of very big, popular, or searched for online. So I thought I`d jam them together into one entry.

Kahoolawe is an uninhabited island, and the smallest of the eight main Hawaiian islands. It lies near Maui and Lanai, approximately seven miles or 11.2 km southwest of Maui. Its total land area is 44.6 square miles, or 115.5 square km. At its longest point it is 11 miles/18 km long, and at is widest point it is 6 miles/9.7 km wide. Talk about small!

Here is a satellite map of Kahoolawe

Niihau island boasts a massive population of approximately 130! It is slightly larger than Kahoolawe but not much. Its total land area is 69.5 sq miles/180 km squared. It is situated about 17.5 miles/28.2 km southwest of Kauai, which lies on the other side of the Kaulakhi Channel. This island is the site of a small naval installation.

Map of Oahu Hawaii

Choose a Map of Oahu Hawaii`s most populous island.

With total land area of 596.7 square miles (1,545.4 km2), Oahu is not the largest island in Hawaii, but rather the third largest. However, it does have the largest population out of any of the islands at 953,207, and is the seat of the state capital Honolulu.

The island resulted from the overlapping of two shield post-eruption, with a broad valley in between them. The island is also known by locals as "The Gathering Place". One of the famous features of the island is Diamond Head, a volcanic tuff cone.

These first two maps of Oahu are obviously older ones that were scanned from physical atlases.

Molokai Map

Find a good Molokai map down below

Molokai is a popular island in the Hawaiian archipelago and known for its stunning natural beauty. In fact, its scenery is featured in the Hollywood Blockbuster Jurassic Park. It is the fifth largest island in Hawaii, with a land area of 260 square miles - 673.40 km squared. The West side of the island faces Honolulu, and lies approximately 25 miles (40 km) away, across the Kaiwi Channel. Lanai island lies to the south of Molokai. Lanai and Maui are visible from the south section of the island, and Honolulu`s nightscape and shining lights can be seen from the West side.

Two overlapping shield volcanoes form the island of Molokai. The two are known as East Molokai, and the diminuitive West Molokai. The highest point on the island is Kamakou on East Molokaʻi, towering up to 4,970 feet (1,510 m). It is a sparsely populated island with only 7,404 people counted in the latest census.

Maps of Lanai Island, Hawaii

Lanai Island is the sixth biggest island in the Hawaiian archipelago. It is affectionately spoken of as "Pineapple Island". That moniker is not because of the somewhat pineapple shape of the island, it`s actually related to the island`s historical role as a pineapple plantation. It is a rather small island, measuring only 18 miles, or 29 kilometers, at the widest point. And its total land area 140.5 square miles, or 364 square km.

The island has a small population of 3,193 and is not widely visited by tourists who come to Hawaii.

Map of Kauai

Have a look for a good map of Kauai below

Geologically speaking, the oldest of the Hawaiian islands is Kauai island, dating back to 6 million years ago. But It is only the fourth largest of the islands with a land area of 562.3 square miles (1456.4 km), and has a fairly small population of around 58,000. Hawaiian locals refer to the island casually as "Garden Isle".

The island of Kauai is volcanic, as are other islands in the Hawaiian archipelago. The island developed as a result of the Pacific plate`s passage over the Hawaii hotspot. The tallest mountain peak on the island is definitely Kawaikini, rising to an elevation of 5243 feet, or 1598 meters.

Here is a simple and basic map of Kauai without any unnecessary details.

Map of Maui

Find a printable map of Maui below

Maui is the second largest of the islands of Hawaii, with a land area of 727.2 square miles, or 1883 square kilometers. It is also the name of the county that includes the island itself, plus four other smaller islands named Lana`i, Kaho`olawe, and Molokai. The island has a population of 144,444, making it the third most populous (after O`ahu and Hawaii).

The climatic conditions on Maui are surprisingly varied, with different areas of the island having quite different amounts of clouds and rain fall, varying humidity levels, and different temperature ranges.

One popular activity for tourists on Maui is whale-watching, since Humpback whales come to the `Au`au Channel in winter. It is also know, of course, for its beautiful beaches and laid-back vacation atmosphere.


Here is a Maui map showing the main roads around the island.
