Honouliuli station (also known as Hoʻopili station) is a Skyline metro station in East Kapolei, Hawaiʻi. It opened on June 30, 2023 and includes a 344-space park and ride lot.[1][2][3]

In Hawaiian, "honouliuli" means "dark bay" and is the name of the ahupuaʻa in which it is located.[4] The Hawaiian Station Name Working Group proposed Hawaiian names for the nine rail stations on the ʻEwa end of the rail system (stations west of and including Aloha Stadium) in November 2017,[5] and HART adopted the proposed names on February 22, 2018.[6]
