    Summary: 
    Kapaʻa, like most rural towns on Kauaʻi and many in Hawaiʻi, got its start in the 19th century as a sugar town. But, within five years, Kapaʻa's sugar mill was gone; the little village almost disappeared. By the early 20th century, Kapaʻa was once again a thriving community. Self-reliant merchants and shopkeepers, first mostly Chinese and then Japanese, competed with the neighboring plantation store. Homesteaders populated the hills behind Kapaʻa, and two pineapple canneries offered employment. Several movie theaters provided alternatives to the bars and taxi-dance halls. By the 1970s, pineapple, too, was gone, and Kapaʻa faced new challenges. Today, new entrepreneurs working alongside the old provide entertainment for a new clientele of pleasure-seekers, tourists.
