In Hawaiian the words heʻe ʻia mean "washed away", alluding to a victory achieved by the populace against others from leeward Oʻahu, aided by a tsunami that washed the combatants off the shore.Heʻeia includes Haʻikū Valley and Heʻeia Kea. The population was 5,001 at the 2020 census. Thec area is almost entirely one of homes and apartments. Parts of Heʻeia lie along Kāneʻohe Bay, but public access is non-existent owing to private ownership of the property behind the shore. Notable in the Heʻeia area are: Haʻikū Valley, a former United States Coast Guard radio transmitter site with the Haiku Stairs Site of the former receiving antenna tower for Station HYPO, the naval cryptanalytic station that did so much toward breaking Japanese naval codes in 1941-1942 that resulted in US victory in the Battle of Midway, seen by most historians as the turning point of the Pacific War. The site of their antenna was He'eia, not the site of Station HYPO itself. Station HYPO got its name from the phonetic for the letter "H", because of He'eia where its antenna was sited Heʻeia Fishpond, the largest remaining fishpond on OʻahuHeʻeia Kea is a community and small, undeveloped valley separated from Heʻeia by Heʻeia Marsh and Kealohi Point. Heʻeia Kea Small Boat Harbor, the only public pier and boat ramp on Kāneʻohe Bay, is found here. Several fishponds have been restored in recent years. Although fishponds were developed on most of the islands, the largest concentrations were found in Keʻehi Lagoon, Pearl Harbor, and Kāneʻohe Bay on Oʻahu. The U.S. ZIP code for Heʻeia and Heʻeia Kea is the same as for Kāneʻohe: 96744.

A walled coastal pond (loko iʻa kuapā), it is the only Hawaiian fishpond fully encircled by a wall (kuapā).

Haʻikū Valley is an amphitheater-shaped valley on the windward side of the Koʻolau Range behind Kāneʻohe, Oʻahu in the Hawaiian Islands. The valley was the site of a United States Navy radio transmitting station (later taken over by the Coast Guard as an OMEGA Navigation System station) and is part of the route of Hawaii's Interstate H-3.The Haʻikū Stairs (also known as "Stairway to Heaven") is a foot trail of over 3,000 metal stairs ascends to Puʻu Keahiakahoe, a 2,800-foot (850 m) peak above the east valley wall. The stairs were originally constructed as a means of reaching the radio antenna attachment points high on the surrounding ridge line. The trail starts at an elevation of 480 feet (150 m) and covers an approximate horizontal distance of 4,500 feet (1,400 m) for an average slope of about 30 degrees (however, some sections are nearly vertical). The Haʻikū Stairs are closed to the public, although people still illegally trespass to experience the nearly two-hour climb. The facility initially was built following the attack on Pearl Harbor as a means of communicating with U.S. Navy ships as far away as Tokyo Bay. The facility had a massive antenna system consisting of five massive cable antennas draped from atop one mountain ridge, and across the mountain valley to the top of the other ridge. The ridges formed a horseshoe shape around the valley. The natural height of the mountain ridges made for an excellent means of having an elevated antenna system. The construction and use of the facility was initially a classified military secret.The walls of the main building were over 5 feet (1.5 m) thick and made of concrete. The building was designed to withstand a 500 lb. bomb being dropped on the top of the building, allowing people inside to survive.
