Filmed here, per Wikipedia
Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Hanalei Bay as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is, each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

South Pacific
1958
“Hanalei Bay, on the Hawaiian island of Kauai, served as the filming location, with Emil Kosa Jr.'s matte paintings providing distant views of the fantastic island Bali Ha'i.” Wikipedia
Named here by Hanalei Bay’s own Wikipedia article
Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Hanalei Bay, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.

The Descendants 2011
“Hanalei Bay also served as a filming location for the 1958 film South Pacific and for the 2011 film The Descendants.” Wikipedia
