BY CAR OR MOTORCYCLE

From Ewa or Downtown Honolulu:
There are two ways to get to our campus from the H-1 freeway from town:

Traveling toward Kokohead on H-1 Freeway, take the 6th Avenue Exit. Turn right and continue on 6th Avenue which will end at Alohea Avenue. Continue on Alohea Avenue until you reach the KCC lower campus.

Traveling Kokohead on the H-1 Freeway, take the Kokohead Avenue Exit. Turn right on Kokohead Avenue, and get into your far left lane. At the stop light, turn left on Pahoa Avenue. Take the next right on Oceanview Drive. Follow Oceanview Drive until the end, and you will be at KCC's upper campus (Parking Lot 'A'). To get into Parking Lot 'A', turn right on Kilauea Avenue, and take your first left on Makapuu Avenue. The first driveway on your left, as you turn on Makapuu, is the entrance to Parking Lot 'A'.

From East Honolulu or Hawaii Kai:
Traveling toward Ewa on Kalaniana'ole Highway, take the Kilauea Avenue Exit, and turn left onto Kilauea Avenue. Follow Kilauea for about a mile, until you come to 18th Avenue. At the 18th Avenue intersection, you will be facing a very steep hill. Continue up the steep hill, and at the top you will see KCC's upper campus. After reaching the top, take your next left on to Makapuu Avenue. As you make the left turn, the first driveway on your left will be the entrance to Parking Lot 'A'.

If you want to get to the lower campus, continue on Makapuu Avenue, and turn into the next driveway on your left. This is the entrance to Parking Lot 'B'. From this parking lot, you can get to the Administration Bldg (Ilima Bldg.), where you can register for classes.

Another route would be to turn left onto 18th Avenue from Kilauea and drive to Diamond Head Road. Turn right onto Diamond Head Road and drive to KCC's main campus entrance. From this entrance, you can also get to the Administration Bldg.
