Lahaina, Census-designated place on Maui's northwest coast, Hawaii.
Lahaina extends along the Pacific Ocean coastline between the West Maui Mountains, covering 7.78 square miles of land and 1.51 square miles of water.
The settlement served as the capital of the Kingdom of Hawaii from 1820 to 1845, where King Kamehameha III signed the first Hawaiian constitution.
The early name 'Lele' transformed into Lahaina, derived from Hawaiian terms referencing the strong sunlight that characterizes this coastal location.
The area contains seven bank branches, including multiple locations of Bank of Hawaii and First Hawaiian Bank, while Kapalua Airport stands 5.3 miles away.
Thirty-five percent of Lahaina's workforce operates in arts, entertainment, recreation, accommodation, and food industries, twice the rate of Maui County.
