Kapolei

Aloha and welcome to /r/Kapolei, a place for anything local, like news, pics, sports, events or just stop by, talk story. It's not a place for stink eye or downvote menehunes.

Kapolei is a planned community in Honolulu County, Hawaiʻi, United States, on the island of Oʻahu. It is colloquially known as the "second city" of Oʻahu, in relation to Honolulu. Officially, it is a census-designated place (CDP) within the consolidated city-county of Honolulu.

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.

Much of the land is part of the estate of industrialist James Campbell. Kapolei's major developer is Kapolei Property Development, a subsidiary of James Campbell Company. Kapolei sits primarily upon former sugarcane and pineapple fields.

T-Spot Hideaway.

I was living in Kapolei back in the winter of 2005-2006 as a travel nurse... i was only there a few months. T-Spot was like a second home. I got so much Aloha. Brandon and John were great bartenders. I miss them. I love all you folks living in the area. I'm so glad I got to experience your island culture for just a little while.

I hate that the T-Spot is gone.

Tire Repair

Where can I go, possibly Sunday, to get a tire repaired? I have a slow leak due to a screw in the tire.

Looking for things to do in Kapolei!

There's a chance my spouse and I will be going to Kapolei for a week in January. We are looking for things to do that are....

  • affordable/free
  • accessible by the bus system
  • primarily outdoors (we are still observing COVID19 precautions and wear masks indoors)
  • not over-the-top touristy
  • locally loved/suggested
  • queer friendly (since it's worth noting that in our current political climate)

We would love to see as much of Oahu as possible and maybe even other islands! The only caveat is that we will not be renting a car so we need activities that are reasonable to get to with TheBus. We are not picky eaters, we love art, hiking, kayaking, and sight-seeing.
