About the Book

In cooperation with the U.S. National Park Service (NPS), the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has mapped the underwater environment in and adjacent to three parks along the Kona coast on the island of Hawaii. This report is the second of two produced for the NPS on the geologic resource evaluation of of Puuhonua O Honaunau National Historical Park (PUHO) and presents the results of benthic habitat mapping of the offshore waters for PUHO. See Part I (Richmond and others, 2006) for an overview of the regional geology, local volcanics, and a detailed description of coastal landforms in the park. Puuhonua O Honaunau National Historical Park boundaries extend only to the mean high tide line and do not officially include the marine environment. However, impacts downslope of any development in the park are of concern to management. The area mapped for this report extends from Honaunau Bay, around Puuhonua Point, to Kiilae Bay and the south park boundary and from the shoreline to depths of approximately 40 m (130 ft), where the shelf drops off to a sand-covered bottom. Puuhonua O Honaunau National Historical Park lies within the nearly 850-km2 Kiilae watershed, which begins at the crest of Mauna Loa. The Kiilae Watercourse runs through the southern area of the park and empties into Kiilae Bay, but only during periods of extreme rainfall. The waters of Keoneele Cove, the ancient royal canoe landing at PUHO, while not formally under NPS jurisdiction, are managed by the park under an agreement with the State of Hawaii. This small embayment is a known haven for sea turtles, which are often found sunning themselves on the near- shore volcanic platform. Impacts to this area include frequent visits by scuba divers and snorkelers to Honaunau Bay and a small boat ramp located just to the north of Keoneele Cove.
