Wildlife Viewing

Kaloko-Honokōhau National Historical Park provides the opportunity to spot some unique wildlife found in the Hawaiian Islands, including some species that can only be found here!

An amazing number of migratory bird species fly to Kaloko-Honokōhau every winter to use the wetlands of 'Aimakapa Fishpond. Endangered Hawaiian stilts and coots make their home in the the Kaloko Fishpond. Along the shore, you can watch for sea turtles and shorebirds or may be lucky enough to see a Hawaiian monk seal hauled out on the beach basking in the sun.
