Oahu
Oahu (Hawaiian: O‘ahu), the "Gathering Place", is the third largest of the Hawaiian Islands and most populous island in the State of Hawai‘i. Total land area is 608 mile² (1,600 km²). In greatest dimension, this volcanic island is 71 km (44 mi) long and 48 km (30 mi) across. The length of the shoreline is 366 km (227 mi). The island is the result of two separate shield volcanoes: Wai‘anae and Ko‘olau, with a broad "valley" or saddle (the central Oahu Plain) between them. The highest point is Mt. Ka‘ala in the Wai‘anae Range, rising to 1,225 m (4019 ft) above sea level (Macdonald, Abbott, & Peterson, 1983).
