Architectural Cityscape Art
Kōloa is an unincorporated census-designated place (CDP) in Kauaʻi County, Hawaiʻi, United States. The first successful sugarcane plantation in the Islands was started here in 1835. It became a part of Grove Farm in 1948. The population was 1,942 at the 2000 census. Kōloa is often incorrectly translated as native duck, which is the correct translation for the similar-looking koloa (without the macron). Kōloa has no known translation. According to one account, the district Kōloa was named for a steep rock called Pali-o-kō-loa which was found in 'Waikomo' stream.
The Old Sugar Mill of Koloa was the first major sugarcane plantation in Hawaii in 1835. Missionary Daniel Dole and his family opened a boarding school for English language speaking children, sometimes called the Koloa Academy, in 1855.
