Kokomo is a community on the island of Maui, Maui County, Hawaii. It is located just north of Makawao, Hawaii at 20°52′12″N 156°18′32″W. Elevation is about 1,467 feet (447 m).[1] It is uphill of the area known as Haʻikū.[2] Contrary to popular belief, the Beach Boys' 1988 single of the same name is not based on this Hawaiian community; the song's lyrics refer instead to a fictional island near the Florida Keys.[3]
