OVERVIEW |
|
| |
|
|
| |
In the
early 1900s, Hawai`i was one of the largest
rice producers in the country, with towns
like Hanalei and Wailoi leading the way. The
Hanalei Pier was originally built in 1892
and extended in 1912, responding to the need
to transport rice grown in nearby Hanalei
Valley.
It was one of the main ports on the island
until 1933, when Nawiliwili Harbor was
established. Since then, it was used
primarily as a recreational pier where
locals would come to fish. The pier shot to
fame in 1957 when it was featured in South
Pacific. |
