Haiku (Hawaiian: Haʻikū) is an unincorporated community in Maui County on the island of Maui in the state of Hawaii. For United States Census purposes, it is part of the Haiku-Pauwela census-designated place, which also includes Pauwela.[2]

It was named for the ancient Hawaiian land section of Haʻikū, which is Hawaiian for "talk abruptly" or "sharp break".[3]
