For weeks, illegal activities at Ke Iki Beach on the North Shore of Oʻahu drove concerns for the safety of seven honu nests: bonfires, light pollution and beach driving. While there had been the occasional nest on this beach in the past, this is the first time they have appeared on this scale. All seven nests, likely laid by a single female who herself was born on Ke Iki Beach, created a unique challenge for conservation groups, residents and, most importantly, her offspring.

Last summer, Honolulu Mayor Rick Blangiardi pledged to get 1,000 people off the street over the next year by ramping up enforcement and providing homeless people with resources. Blangiardi made good on the first half of that promise, but not so much when it comes to getting folks off the street for good. Police issued nearly 11,000 tickets in that time frame, a 60% increase from the year before. We reviewed these records and found that police are repeatedly ticketing the same people, including o

The stretch of beaches from Kapo‘o to Sunset Point on Oʻahu’s North Shore are some of the most famous in the world. Every winter, thousands flock to Banzai Pipeline to witness this iconic surf spot. But the waves that gave this 3-mile stretch its reputation are also eating away at the beach one swell at a time, in some cases taking homes along with it. The North Shore is impacted by long-term gradual erosion and huge erosion episodes that accompany large storms. Some of the beaches in this stret

Hawaiʻi plans to pump the brakes on the state income tax breaks planned in years ahead. In Gov. Josh Green’s State of the State address this year, he said there would be no changes this year to the massive state income tax cuts passed in 2024, but that the planned tax cuts for 2027 through 2029 will be “paused” for all state taxpayers. “We would have been able to keep all of the tax package that was passed two years ago had we not seen the pretty devastating financial picture from the shutdown i

Have you been up to Tantalus lately? 👀 This scenic winding road boasts grand views of Diamond Head, access to hikes and a long training hill for cyclists on O‘ahu, all without leaving Honolulu. Unfortunately, sections of Tantalus Road and Round Top Drive are falling apart. It’s made an already challenging drive even sketchier, particularly for those on two wheels. Driving up Tantalus, there are long stretches of steep switchbacks quilted with asphalt patches that create a mosaic of uneven groun

How much would you pay to ride TheBus? Comment below. Honolulu transit fares could go up starting next year to help make up for lower ridership and pay for escalating costs.

Island life comes with its fair share of ever-increasing dangers as the climate warms. In 2018, our neighbors in Saipan saw the most powerful storm to hit any part of the nation in eight decades, with winds that devastated much of the island’s southern end. At first, the Federal Emergency Management Agency was a big help. But then came other storms, and FEMA’s attention went elsewhere. Marcel traveled to Admiral Herbert G. Hopwood Middle School in Saipan. The stories he shares offer a reminder o
