Tsunami Preparedness in Ewa Beach

April 20, 2026 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Know Your Zone - Tsunamis

Know your zone & make a plan.

Be Tsunami Ready. Join neighbors at the Ewa Beach Public & School Library for a practical, expert-led Tsunami Preparedness Meeting. Learn what to do when a tsunami alert is issued and how to protect yourself, your family, and those who may need extra support.

You’ll learn:

  • Tsunami evacuation zones – are you in one?
  • Evacuation options: walk-out or vertical evacuation
  • Emergency alerts – county system, outdoor sirens, and wireless emergency alerts
  • Why tsunami planning is different from hurricane planning
  • How to prepare a simple evacuation go-bag
  • Planning for kupuna, caregivers, and residents with access needs

Registration is recommended. Please call the library at (808) 689-1204 to sign up.

This program is brought to you by AARP,  ‘Ōlelo, and University of Hawai‘i Sea Grant.

Anyone who requires an auxiliary aid or service for effective communication, or a modification of policies or procedures to participate in a program, service, or activity should contact library staff as soon as possible. Advance requests 48 hours or more before the event are encouraged, but not required. All programs are subject to change.
