North Coast is pretty much “North Coast” with wonderful Waimea, Wailua and secluded areas near Dillingham Air Field.

Leeward, from Makaha, down to Waianae, Maile, Kapolei, Ewa, Waipahu and on over to western Honolulu pretty much makes up the “Leeward Side.” A good rule of thumb is knowing the mauka – Waianae range and west is Leeward; Koolau range and east is Windward; inbetween the Waianae & Koolaus is the Wahiawa plane with the North Shore north of it.

Have relatives who used to raise shrimp in/near Kahuku and had a stand where you could stop and buy raw, cooked, meal, what-have-you. Don’t know if it’s the same now, as the State made a lot of land near there a bird sanctuary. As with all good intentioned government acts, this too went “fowl” (bad pun) – there were more desired birds there while shrimp were being raised than now with the shrimp ponds no longer producing.

Go figgur, brah! More bedda before.
