Waimea Valley: The Heart of the North Shore of O'ahu
Return to Waimea!
A new community website-- independently designed and maintained by young Hawaiians from the North Shore of O'ahu, Hawai'i.
Culturally, ecologically and historically precious Waimea Valley was saved from division and development by concerted community action in 2005 and 2006.
On February 1, 2008 this place of traditional Hawaiian power, so beloved by so many around the world, came under the kuleana (stewardship) of the Office of Hawaiian Affairs (OHA). We honor the previous service provided by the National Audubon Society as administrator of the Valley for more than two years; the new direction was welcomed by the Hawaiians of the North Shore.
Waimea is the last complete traditional Hawaiian ahupua'a on O'ahu -- from the mountains to the sea -- and it remains whole, so its sacred voices can be heard and respected.
