British explorer James Cook was the first European to land in the islands of present-day Hawaii on January 20, 1778. On a subsequent visit, he was killed in Kealakekua during his attempt to kidnap and hold the king of the Island of Hawai'i in exchange for a stolen longboat.[6] An obelisk memorializing Cook's death can be seen from all points in Kealakekua Bay, on a plot of land deeded in perpetuity by the Kingdom of Hawaii to the United Kingdom.[7]
