City Guide for Nanakuli, HI
Nanakuli gets its name from the two words -- nana kuli, which, in Hawaiian basically mean "feign to be deaf." Located on the leeward coast, which is arid and hot, ancient Hawaiians realized that they would have difficulties raising crops or food. As Hawaiian tradition requires that food be offered to passing travelers, the ancient people went into hiding to avoid giving someone what little food they could grow or keep. If a traveler did see one of the people, the islander would pretend that they couldn't hear, or that they were deaf.
Located on Oahu's western shore, Nanakuli is unofficially a small town that is approximately 30 miles to the north and west of Honolulu
