Crater, head, Hawaiʻi Kai, Oʻahu. Koko Crater and Koko Head are two prominent volcanic tuff cones at the east end of Maunalua Bay. Koko Crater is also known as Kohelepelepe. Literally, blood. Both the crater and the headland took their name from a former canoe landing named Koko at Portlock Beach. In one legendary account, blood washed ashore here from the victim of a shark attack.
