Good morning, Kailua.

Something has been missing from this town — a daily, dedicated place to find out what's happening right here on the Windward side. Not statewide news. Not Honolulu headlines. Just Kailua. The Farmers Market. The Neighborhood Board. The sunrise over the Mokes. The new restaurant on Kailua Road. The trail conditions at Maunawili Falls.

That's what Kailua Today is here for.

Every morning, Kailua Today will bring you the events of the day, local news, community announcements, a little history, and the best photos our community has to offer. It's free. It arrives in your inbox. And it's written for the people who love this town.

Kailua means "two seas" in Hawaiian — a nod to the two currents that meet in Kailua Bay. It's a fitting name for a town that has always drawn people together. That's what we hope Kailua Today becomes: a place where the community meets, every single day.

We're just getting started. Subscribe below to get the daily newsletter, share this with a neighbor, and if you have a photo, a tip, or a story worth telling — reach out. This is your publication.

Mahalo for reading.
