Koloa, translated as "Tall Cane", is recognized as the birthplace of the Hawaiian sugar industry. In 1835, the first sugar plantation in the Hawaiian Islands began its operations right here in peaceful Koloa. |

Sugar, known as "king cane", was key to Hawaii's economy for over 150 years and the spirit lives on in Koloa today as a historic plantation town. If you happen to visit in the summer during July, keep an eye out for the fun and celebratory Koloa Plantation Days festival. |
