Wahi Koʻikoʻi: Kalāhuipuaʻa

SCROLl TO DISCOVER

One of seven traditional fishponds located in Kona, Kalāhuipuaʻa is a testament to the ingenuity and sophistication of the traditional Hawaiian aquaculture system. The high level of loko iʻa design and tools such as the makahā (sluice gates) allowed for a balanced and continuous supply of fish, which supported a large population.

The Hawai’i Tourism Authority presents Wahi Koʻikoʻi. This series visits significant places in Hawaiʻi from the tops of Maunakea to the abundant waters of ʻIao, sharing the rich history of these remarkable places.
