Hawaiian Acres

Hawaiian Acres While the Puna district does not have running streams, it does have many inland and shoreline springs continuously fed by rains borne upon the northeast tradewinds. In Puna, much of the district's coastal areas have thin soils and there are no good deep water harbors. The ocean along the Puna coast is often rough and windblown. As a result, settlement patterns in Puna tend to be dispersed and without major population centers. Between 1958 and 1973, more than 52,500-individual lots were created for residential use. There are at least over 40 Puna subdivisions. Hawaiian Acres became the first of many speculative subdivisions to be created.
