About Kapolei


Kapolei is a planned community in the county of Honolulu, on the island of Oahu. The community takes its name from a volcanic cone, Puʻu o Kapolei. In the Hawaiian language, puʻu means "hill" and Kapo lei means "beloved Kapo". According to legend, Kapo, Goddess of Fertility was sister to Pele, Goddess of Fire and Nāmaka, Goddess of the Sea.

In just 25 years, Kapolei has become the fastest growing region in the state of Hawaii.
