The Kō'ula River or Koula is the largest tributary of the Hanapēpē River on the Hawaiian island of Kauai. It rises at 4,642 ft (1415 meters) on the slopes of Mt. Waialeale and flows generally south for 9.2 miles to its confluence with the Manuahi Stream. Beyond this point it is known as the Hanapēpē River.

The Hanapēpē Massacre (also called the Battle of Hanapēpē) occurred on September 9, 1924, when an dispute amongst Filipino strike organizers in Hanapēpē, Kaua'i resulted in a violent exchange between local police officers and Filipinos. The conflict began when two Ilocano youth, allegedly breaking the Filipino-led labor strike, were detained and harassed by a group of Visayans at the Hanapepe strike camp. When the local police were called to settle the dispute, they arrived with a group of heavily armed special deputies. Upon arrival, the officers issued warrants of arrest for the two detained Illocanos, causing the collection of Filipino strikers to rally in opposition. Despite previously ridiculing the two Ilocanos, the remaining Filipinos armed themselves and demanded the boys be released. A violent exchange ensued wherein sixteen Filipino laborers and four police officers were left dead.

Spouting Horn is a blowhole located on the southern coast of Kauai in the Koloa district. This area of Kauai is known for its crashing waves (nearby Poipu translates to "crashing"). These waves erode lava rocks on the coastline which can create narrow openings, as is the case with Spouting Horn. With every wave, water shoots upward when it is forced through an opening and creates a sound suggestive of hissing. The spray can shoot as high as 50 feet in the air. The original Hawaiian name was puhi, meaning blowhole. The Spouting Horn is a part of the Koloa Heritage Trail, a 10-mile trail in the Koloa district.

Hanapepe Town Lot No. 18, Hanapepe, Hawaii, on the island of Kauai, is a building built in 1926. Historically remembered as the Pool Hall, it was built as a coffee shop, then later partly used as a radio shop. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993. Also listed on the state register, restoration of the building was completed in 2003 after being damaged in Hurricane Iniki. It was deemed "significant as a surviving example of the vernacular wood commercial buildings constructed in Hawaii in the early twentieth century. Single wall construction and the false front are characteristic of the type. The plantations popularized single wall construction, but the method was used throughout the islands because of its low cost and ease of construction. The unsupported pent roofs at the sidewalk are characteristic of Hanapepe's commercial buildings.": 3 It was deemed significant also for association with the 1920s and 1930s growth of Hanapepe, a town that is unique in Kauai for developing not as a plantation town, but rather as workers left plantations elsewhere and moved to the area to farm and to open businesses.
