What Kind of Water Is This?

Kaloko is a traditional Hawaiian coastal fishpond inside Kaloko-Honokōhau National Historical Park. A stone wall and water gates link its fish, tides, wetland, and cultural history.

Fishing Rules Matter Here

How the Pond Works

Tidewater moves through the gates, allowing small fish and fresh water to pass while the wall protects calmer pond water. That flow matters far more than any lake-depth number.
