Is It Illegal to Cut Down Koa Trees in Hawai‘i?
Legal Status Koa is not classified as an endangered species, and cutting a koa tree is not automatically illegal throughout Hawai‘i. However, legality depends on several key factors, including land ownership, location, and applicable state or local regulations. For example, koa trees on private land may be subject to different rules than those on public or conservation lands. On State Forest Reserve lands, the Hawai‘i Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) oversees the harvesting and removal of forest products, including timber. In these areas, commercial harvesting requires proper authorization. (DLNR Forest Reserve System Permitting) On the other hand, it is not illegal to cut down koa trees growing on one's own private property. Think of it this way: It is illegal to cut down a tree in a public...

How can you tell if you’re buying REAL Koa?
Not everything marketed as “koa” is actually genuine Hawaiian Koa. Learn how to tell the difference Koa is one of Hawaiʻi’s most treasured natural resources—and one of the most beautiful woods in the world. But not everything marketed as “koa” is actually genuine Hawaiian koa. Knowing the difference is important when purchasing furniture, gifts, jewelry, or accessories. Real koa grows only in Hawaiʻi. Acacia koa is endemic to the Hawaiian Islands. It only grows in Hawaii and no place else. By contrast, many products sold as “acacia” are made from commercial acacia species grown in Southeast Asia, including Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, and India. While some retailers try to sell these cheaper woods as Hawaiian koa, they are not Hawaiian koa. If it is too cheap, it's probably made from imitation...

We love shopping here.
I bought my husband a Koa Wood watch from here. We also bought Koa wood wedding bands recently and a beautiful Koa wood picture frame. It's a great place to purchase a little of Hawaii to bring home. Things that mean something and have purpose. Not to mention, things that get others attention. My husband gets lots of compliments on his watch! Staff is always nice. They truly give a little Aloha spirit.

Went into the store expecting to see items geared toward the Maui tourist, and was pleasantly surprised to find high quality, island-made goods. We ended up buying our wedding rings here. (The sales associate) is awesome and was very patient as we decided on a style. They are highly recommended.

This is a great shop. They have all sorts of fabulous Hawaiian gifts and locally made art, jewelry and other souvenirs. The gifts here are upscale yet in many cases affordable. I couldn't resist leaving without purchasing a cute necklace first. Definitely stop in here and check it out...the service is friendly and nice too!

My custom Koa furniture arrived one week early. Was packaged so well for protection through delivery. High quality, definitely exceeded our expectations. The store's staff were very easy to work with throughout the entire ordering process. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.

I went here today with a friend who was looking at watches. J gave incredible service from start to finish. He answered questions on the phone, helped us feel comfortable trying on each of the beautiful watches we wanted to see on our wrists and in the end I was able to find a beautiful print from Heather Brown that J was kind enough to wrap nicely for me to take home.

For some reason, I've always felt intimidated to go inside of Martin & MacArthur because it seemed like it would be out of my price range. However, last week I was pleasantly surprised with this store.
Yes, there are things here that are pretty pricey. However, there are also items that are less than $100 like their koa bracelets. The great thing about this place is that they sell well-made, quality products that are absolutely beautiful. I have a few weddings this summer, and I know that I'll probably be coming here for gifts.
