EspañolHE'EIA, HAWAII
'Heeia' comprises several neighborhoods located in the City & County of Honolulu and the Koolaupoko District on the Island of Oahu that are essentially the north end of Kāneohe. In Hawaiian the words ''hee ia'' mean washed away, alluding to a victory achieved by the populace against others from leeward Oahu, aided by a tsunami that washed the combatants off the shore.
Heeia includes Haikū Valley and Heeia Kea. As of the 2000 Census, the neighborhood had a total population of 4,944. The area is almost entirely one of homes and apartments. If the census tract corresponds to the State Tax Map Key (TMK), then the Windward Mall and Kaneohe Bay Shopping Center comprise the commercial district, although Heeia merges into the Kāneohe commercial district at this point. Parts of Heeia lie along Kāneohe Bay, but public access is non-existent owing to private ownership of the property behind the shore. Notable in the Heeia area are:
★ 'Haikū Valley', a former United States Coast Guard radio transmitter site with the 'Stairway to Heaven' hiking trail.
★ 'Heeia Fishpond', the largest remaining fishpond on Oahu.
'Heeia Kea' is a census-designated place and small, undeveloped valley separated from Heeia by Heeia Marsh and Kealohi Point. Heeia Kea Small Boat Harbor, the only public pier and boat ramp on Kāneohe Bay, is found here. Several fishponds have been restored in recent years. Although fishponds were developed on most of the islands, the largest concentrations were found in Keehi Lagoon, Pearl Harbor, and Kāneohe Bay on Oahu.
The U.S. postal code for Heeia and Heeia Kea is the same as for Kāneohe: '96744'.
Heeia is located at 21°25'34" North, 157°48'44" West (21.426200, -157.812248). Heeia is essentially part of Kāneohe and the nearest town to the northwest is Āhuimanu, reached by either Kahekili Highway (State Rte. 83) or Kamehameha Highway (State Rte. 830) along the coast.
