Oʻahu topographic map, elevation, terrain
Oʻahu
Oʻahu exhibits a striking and diverse topography shaped primarily by its volcanic origins and subsequent erosion. The island features a rugged landscape dominated by two prominent volcanic mountains, Koʻolau and Waiʻanae, which rise sharply from the coastline, reaching elevations of approximately 4,000 feet. The windward sides of these ranges are characterized by lush, steep valleys and numerous waterfalls, shaped by heavy rainfall and the erosive power of streams cutting through the basalt rock. In contrast, the leeward coasts present a more gentle terrain, with flatter areas and sandy beaches, where erosion is less pronounced due to lower precipitation levels. Oʻahu's unique topography is further highlighted by features such as the dramatic cliffs known as "pali," formed by past volcanic activity and landslides, which have also created striking coastal scenery along the island's shores.
