Pohue Bay HI lies below Hawaiian Ocean View Estates and Hawaiian Ocean View Ranchos in the Ka'u district on the Big Island of Hawaii. Located just below the Hawaiian Ranchos you need a four wheel drive vehicle and requires permission from the landowner to cross. There is no public access by vehicle to Pohue Bay Kau Hawaii which is too bad. It is a long hike if you are willing to try it on foot. Public access to a beach or bay should be available to the public for any beach in the State of Hawaii. A developer is trying to weasel in a massive 16,000 acre development between Mamalahoa Hay and Pohue Bay just south of Hawaiian Ocean View Estates. This area is larger than the Hawaiian Ocean View Subdivision and over ten times the size of Hokuli’a.
You can read a complete description of the project via its Environmental Impact Statement Public Notice *EISPN” HERE.
The proposed project would wipe out a pristine open area with:
* Three coastal resort hotel complexes with up to 950 units
* Two 18-hole nearshore golf courses
* 850 golf resort homes
* An airport
* 70 airport lots
* Up to 1,050 residential lots clustered around a commercial Village Core just south of the current Ocean View Village Center.
* 170 20-acre agricultural lots
Here are some great pictures of this pristine area:
