Peahi, Hawaii : ウィキペディア英語版 | Peahi, Hawaii
Peahi ( ; ) is a place on the north shore of the island of Maui in the U.S. state of Hawaii. It has lent its name to a big wave surfing break, also known as Jaws. ==Location== The name Peahi originally applied to an ancient Hawaii land area (''ahupuaa'') at about . Like many ancient land areas, it extended from the northern slopes of Haleakalā to the sea-level Peahi gulch. It also lent its name to a reservoir formed by a dam across the Uaoa Stream. The name ''Peahi'' means "wave" in the Hawaiian language, in the sense of a fanning or beckoning motion of the hand. Much of the land is owned by Alexander & Baldwin, formerly leased for agriculture to Maui Pineapple Company (until it went out of business in 2009).〔
