Waipio Valley

Waipio Valley is located in Hawaii County on the Hamakua Coast of the Hawaii the Big Island, northwest of Honokaa along Highway 240 near Kukuihaele, the Lalakea Stream, Waipio Bay, and the Kohala Forest Reserve.

Waipio is the largest of the seven valleys on the windward side of the island and is known as The Valley of the Kings, because it was at one time the home of the rulers of Hawaii.
