Huleia

Feature:Shore area
Comments:Shore area near Mokulau referenced in the legend of Pamano in the book "Fornander Collection of Hawaiian Antiquities and Folk-lore": "When they reached the heights of Mahinui, a resting place, they turned and looked at Mokulau. Pamano stood and looked at the sea and the shining sands of Huleia. Then he chanted: ... Like a white kapa spread out, the sands at the shore of Huleia."

Spelled “Hulaia” in an obituary in Ka Hoku o ka Pakipika in October 1862: "Aloha Hulaia ke one a kaua e hele ai la." (Farewell, Hulaia, the sand we would walk on.)
